“LIVE UNITED” AT 18th ANNUAL DAY OF CARING
Together, UNITED, we
can inspire hope and create opportunities for a better tomorrow. That is what
it means to LIVE UNITED.
United Way of
Northeast Arkansas invites you to be part of the change by volunteering for the
18th Annual Day of Caring on October 8. The Campaign Kickoff Celebration
begins at 8:00 at the St. Bernards Auditorium with breakfast, provided by St. Bernards
Medical Center, served from 8:00 – 8:30. Lunch for our volunteer workers will
also be served at the Auditorium from 11:30 – 1:00. Projects will be ongoing
throughout the day.
United Way of
Northeast Arkansas has organized the community-wide Day of Caring since 1993,
providing area residents with volunteer opportunities of all kinds. On this
special day, more than 500 volunteers come together to make an impact by completing
projects at local non-profit organizations. Projects in the past have included
repairing playground equipment, building shelves, yard work, and painting.
Groups and individuals can work all day or only in the morning or afternoon. To
participate, go to www.uwnea.org where you will find volunteer forms for
individuals and groups, which should be sent to United Way by September 17.
Show your team spirit by designing a t-shirt
incorporating the Day of Caring logo! You may download the logo from our
website at www.uwnea.org , or if you’d prefer, we’ll be glad to e-mail it to you. To enter
the "Best T-Shirt" contest, please submit your design via e-mail to ruth.baker@unitedway.org by September 17.
United Way of
Northeast Arkansas is working to advance the common good by focusing on education,

education that leads to a stable job, enough income to support a family through
retirement and good health. You are invited to be part of the change.
Give. Advocate. Volunteer.
LIVE UNITED.
