September 15, 2011 -- 1,400 individuals volunteered throughout our community on our annual Day of Caring. Featuring business leaders, community members, government officials, and college students who spent the day inside and outside dozens of non-profits through out central Massachusetts. Donned with their LIVE UNITED t-shirts, teams worked on more than 90 projects at dozens of agencies in our community during United Way of Central Massachusetts Day of Caring, as part of the largest single day volunteer activity.

Teams worked in two shifts: from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. or from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Some hearty volunteers actually worked the whole day on a specific project. All volunteers were invited to a free lunch at the Atrium of St. Vincent Hospital, where the Anna Maria College Marching Band greeted them.

Thank you to all of the volunteers, agencies, companies and sponsors who make this day possible!
