Days of Caring

14th annual Days of Caring, September 6th - 11th

Paint a shelter. Clean a park. Build a trail. Plant a community garden. Serve a meal. Sort donations. Join hands. Give an hour. Give a Saturday. Show the community how you LIVE UNITED and join us!

Each year Days of Caring provides an opportunity for volunteer groups from companies, schools, churches, and other community groups across Marion, Polk, and Yamhill Counties to evoke change and create positive impact in the areas of education, income, and health. Volunteer groups choose from a variety of projects hosted by non-profit and government agencies that fit their interests and availability.  All volunteers receive valuable information about the agency they are serving and the work being done across the Mid-Willamette Valley to improve the common good. 

Volunteer Groups

Joining the volunteer community during Days of Caring is easy. Each volunteer group needs to choose a group leader. The group leader will facilitate picking a community project to volunteer with that fits your schedule and group size and is impacting a community issue that your group is interested in. Multiple choices in dates, times, and projects are available. Registration deadline is July 26.
