On September 15, nearly 15,000 men and women across the state set aside their standard to-do lists and went into the community to participate in United Way’s Day of Caring, an effort to advance the common good through one-day projects while fostering long-term volunteer engagement. This is the first time Massachusetts' 20 United Ways have joined together for a single coordinated volunteer day, thanks to the leadership of Tim Garvin, CEO of United Way of Central Massachusetts and the chair of the Council of Massachusetts United Ways. Even Governor Deval Patrick has proclaimed September 15, 2010 as a statewide DAY OF CARING.
We'd love to hear about your Day of Caring experiences, so leave us a comment.
