Telestream employees helping out during last year’s Day of Action.

GRASS VALLEY, Calif. May 3, 2019 – United Way of Nevada County (UWNC) is planning its 11th 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 Friday, May 31st. 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 building things 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. Businesses and individuals are signing up to help. A local group from the ManKind Project, have signed up to volunteer as well. Students 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 11th Annual ‘Day of Action. Without such wonderful volunteers, we would not be able to hold this great day of action.”
