United Way of Greater Lorain County's Day of Caring
 UPS employee Jim Petsock enjoys a fishing game with children at The Linden SchoolUnited Way of Greater Lorain County's 14th Annual Day of Caring event in September is already underway. Day of Caring is a special event and wonderful occasion for donor's to see their dollars at work. Volunteers team up with our partner agencies and clients to complete hands-on projects at an agency, interact with clients, or organize an agency collection drive at their work place. Participating in Day of Caring offers volunteers a first-hand opportunity to learn about human service needs in Lorain County. Volunteer work gives companies, employees, and community groups an opportunity to make an impact.
Day of Caring is also a fun day for employees to be out in the community and work with their co-workers in a different environment. It's a win-win situation; fun for the volunteer, and a big help for a non-profit organization.
Save The Date!! The Pick A Project meeting will be June 6, 2007, 8:30 a.m. at the Lincoln Community Center. Projects will be chosen at this meeting.
United Way is pleased to announce this year's Day of Caring Co-chairs: Marianne Kocak from Lorain National Bank and Victor Leandry from El Centro De Servicios Sociales.
