 United Way's Days of Caring program gives local organizations the opportunity to join thousands of volunteers in completing hands-on projects. Volunteers can see how their United Way contributions are helping our more than 130 community partner agencies impact the Greater Cleveland community. The Days of Caring program showcases the organizations' volunteer spirit and commitment to making a difference in our community. Most importantly, volunteers can have fun while building team spirit and morale. To date in 2005, nearly 2,300 volunteers from approximately 50 companies have participated in projects at United Way of Greater Cleveland's community partner agencies.
Please contact Michelle Battle at 216-436-2121 or mbattle@uws.org if you are interested in participating in a volunteer project.
