Thank you for all your support during this year's Day of Caring! United Way of West Central Connecticut had over 300 volunteers, 20 locations, and 23 projects that were completed all in one day! We are so grateful for our community and all those who keep our communities thriving.

To see photos from the day, head over to our Facebook page and look for the volunteers in the orange shirts.

Day of Caring is an annual United Way-sponsored event offering hundreds of people the opportunity to volunteer at non-profit agencies in our communities of Bristol, Burlington, Plainville, and Plymouth.

Day of Caring began in 1992 as a way to help employees of local corporations interact with human service agencies and has grown since then. While United Way of West Central Connecticut promotes community service volunteer efforts year-round, this day brings hundreds of people together to make a difference in their community.
