United Way Day of Caring 100+ Projects, 450+ Volunteers Nationwide

United Way organizations across the United States are mobilizing volunteers for their annual Day of Caring events this fall, encouraging community members to engage in various service projects. In Marathon County, Wisconsin, volunteers are invited to help rake leaves for those unable to do so themselves from October 22 to 25, with backup dates set in case of inclement weather. North Central Massachusetts is preparing for its 30th annual Day of Caring on September 19, featuring 65 projects such as playground cleanup and trail work, with events including a kickoff breakfast and a community barbecue. Similarly, North Central Iowa’s Day of Caring on September 18 calls on local businesses, schools, and families to participate in activities like landscaping, painting, and meal delivery. These efforts emphasize community collaboration and the significant impact volunteers can have on local nonprofits and residents in need. Interested participants are encouraged to register promptly to secure their place in these service activities.
