What is Day of Caring?

Traditionally, Day of Caring has brought hundreds of volunteers together to complete a day of service for our community. In the past volunteers come together for a morning rally and then disbursed to their projects. Projects have been made up of large teams, to work on a wide variety of things including parks, renovating organizations, and fixing individuals' homes. After volunteering, everyone would congregate again for a celebration lunch.

For our 28th year, United Way of the Lakeshore is excited to announce we will be holding our Day of Caring in person on Friday, September 10, 2021.

Volunteer Registration!

Like in years past, we will be hosting a large number of projects across Muskegon County for businesses, organizations, clubs, and families to work on side by side. Registration for volunteers will open on July 1st. In the meantime, sign up for our Day of Caring Alert List to be notified as soon as registration opens and the official project roster has been determined!
