2009 RVUW Day of Caring Project List

It’s Day of Caring time again!  For those of you that haven’t been a part of the Day of Caring before; United Way Day of Caring is a day when non-profit agencies who need assistance completing projects submit those projects they need assistance completing to United Way. United Way recruits teams from businesses, industries and the general public to adopt a project to complete. 

This year’s Day of Caring will take place Friday September 11th .

 

Projects range from making copies, reading to children to building garden beds, landscaping, and painting and cleaning projects.  Please submit any projects that you would like to see accomplished.  Projects will be posted on our website and selected by the teams to complete them.  We cannot guarantee that all projects will be selected and will depend on the number of teams recruited.

 

 

Select your top three projects and email your selection to info@rivervalleyunitedway.org. Please include your team name, contact name, email address, telephone number, etc. We will follow up with you via phone regarding your registration.

Thanks!
