June 8, 2018 – United Way of Nevada County (UWNC) is planning its 10th annual “Day of Action.” This is a national day of service for United Ways throughout the world; a day to positively change communities. This year, United Way of Nevada County’s “Day of Action” will be held on June 21st. This day of giving back to the community will be a fun and rewarding event for all of the individuals involved. Many projects will be accomplished on this day of collaboration. Projects such as painting, gardening, weeding, organizing, and filing are just an example of some of the different types of projects that will be taking place on the Day of Action.
People from all parts of the community will come together to help the non-profit organizations that work so hard all year round to help the people who need it most. In the past, local businesses such as Telestream, UPS, Texas Instruments, and JC Penney have signed up to volunteer so far. Individual volunteers and families are always welcome to join the fun and help the community during this day of action.
Megan Timpany, Executive Director of UWNC, said “We look forward to working with the volunteers that will be participating in the 10th Annual ‘Day of Action.” UWNC envisions a community where all individuals and families achieve their desired potential through healthy lives, education and income stability.
United Way of Nevada County’s mission is to improve lives by mobilizing the caring power of our community. United Way of Nevada County’s focus areas are the basic needs of our community, including food, emergency shelter and access to health care.
Volunteers are needed. Contact United Way by June 13th, if you are interested in helping out with this great community event. If you would like to get involved, please call 274-8111 or email admin@uwnc.org .
