Day of Caring - May 11, 2023

“A good reputation is measured by how much you can improve the lives of others.”  - George Eastman

Mr. Eastman left a large legacy of caring and giving. Throughout our area we are able to see the impact he made on the Rochester community. In short, George Eastman cared.

What do you care about? Are you drawn to supporting education? Literacy? Do you want to ensure refugees who come to our area feel safe and have household items to begin to make a home in their new space? As we look ahead to the United Way of Rochester & the Finger Lakes’ Day of Caring on May 11, we invite you to consider how you can show your neighbors that you care. 

Day of Caring is our community’s single largest volunteer effort, helping local nonprofit organizations with projects, or ‘Needs’, that they may not otherwise have resources and volunteers for. Day of Caring Needs include painting, raking, cleaning up parks, planting community gardens, and more!

The opportunities to participate are plentiful! Day of Caring is a great way to explore something new, meet new people and connect with people in your life.  Volunteers are able to volunteer as a group or individual.  Take a look today and be sure to sign-up by May 1.
