Day of Caring connects hundreds of volunteers each year with local nonprofits and programs that need additional assistance with specific projects. Projects range from painting a senior center to serving lunch at a soup kitchen and yard cleanup. This unique event gives volunteers an opportunity to spend their day working on projects that make a difference in the lives of children, families and seniors. Day of Caring also provides opportunities for companies and groups to develop long-lasting relationships with colleagues and agencies.
On September 28th, 2011, more than 250 volunteers armed with shovels, rakes, paintbrushes, buckets, and loads of elbow grease, completed 19 projects in North Penn and Indian Valley helping hundreds of people in our communities.
