Day Of Caring.
Thank you for a great day of caring!
NExt year: September 17 & 19, 2026
The Barry County United Way is committed to our community and continuing our Day of Caring activities in a safe and effective manner. We are excited to continue to offer many different ways to get involved as we continue to expand our typical Day of Caring options. We will still be hosting our traditional “face-to-face” opportunities as well as our “Caring in Action” non-traditional/virtual options.
What
This year year (2025), Day of Caring events brought together well over 600 volunteers participating in both in person and virtual opportunities (Caring in Action). Day of Caring events bring together our local community members, businesses, organizations and churches to show a UNITED front of volunteer service. No matter that your choice is, as a community we can come together to show our residents that despite what our economy may look like, we are coming together as one.
Day of Caring projects will take place
Thursday, September 17 and Saturday, September 19, 2026.
Caring in Action projects will also be available.
Each volunteer will receive a Day of Caring t-shirt as a sign of our appreciation.
