Bring a Team.
Do Good Work.
Love Where You Live.

United Way of Lebanon County’s Day of Caring is a one-day, community-wide volunteer event that mobilizes neighbors, businesses, and schools to complete hands-on projects that directly benefit local nonprofits, schools, parks, and community sites. It’s a chance to roll up your sleeves, meet other volunteers, and leave Lebanon County a little cleaner, safer, and more welcoming.

Why Day of Caring Matters

 Day of Caring helps local nonprofits tackle meaningful projects they don’t always have staff or budget for– projects that improve client services, beautify public spaces, and make programs more effective. These one-day projects let agencies get essential work done while volunteers get a rewarding, team-building experience that shows what “give where you live” really means.

Typical Projects Volunteers Complete

United Way chapters run a wide range of Day of Caring projects designed to fit different skill levels and group sizes. Examples include:

  • Painting, power-washing, and playground repair
  • Landscaping, mulching, and park clean-ups
  • Assembling care kits, food packaging, and donation sorting
  • Minor building repairs, fence work, and wheelchair ramps
  • Indoor projects like filing, mailings, and administrative support
  • Activities with kids and seniors: reading, arts, or games
Who Can Volunteer

Anyone– individuals, families, student groups, churches, civic clubs, and companies– can sign up. Projects are planned to match a range of abilities and group sizes so people of different ages and physical abilities can participate. Many businesses use Day of Caring as a team-building opportunity and a way to demonstrate civic leadership.

If you want to make a visible difference in a single day, Day of Caring is your chance. Sign up as an individual or register your company team– everyone’s time counts.
