Day of Caring- Newport News/Hampton/Poquoson

JOIN US FOR DAY OF CARING
FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 7

This event is a longtime United Way tradition that brings volunteers and community projects together.  We invite nonprofits and human service providers to sign up projects, as well as, volunteer groups and individuals to search for a project to complete.   Last year, United Way had over 800 volunteers complete nearly 60 projects in our community.  

If you are interested in volunteering and do not find a project that fits your team or interests please contact Katie Schubert with United Way:
