Immerse yourself in the transformative experience of United Way of Southwest Alabama’s 30th Annual Day of Caring: A Symphony of Service. Scheduled from Wednesday, April 24, 2024, to Saturday, April 27, 2024, this event brings together diverse talents and collective efforts, much like different musical notes and instruments harmonizing to create something beautiful.

During this impactful initiative, volunteers will witness the power of their support as they engage in a range of projects. From painting and repairs to planting trees, preparing gardens for planting, and sorting food donations, volunteers will actively contribute to projects that our partner agencies may not have the resources or time to address throughout the year. This collaborative effort celebrates the diversity of backgrounds, skills, and perspectives that volunteers bring to the table, forming a symphony of service that echoes the unity within our community.

Beyond the hands-on contributions, volunteers will have the unique opportunity to hear the inspiring stories of individuals whose lives have been positively impacted by the work of these agencies. It’s a chance to connect on a personal level and understand the real-world effects of community service.

Additionally, a rain-out day has been scheduled for May 10, offering a contingency plan in case of inclement weather.
