Day of Caring is a powerful, one-day volunteer event that brings together over 900 community members to complete hands-on projects that directly benefit 75+ local nonprofits across the Northern Shenandoah Valley.

From landscaping and painting to organizing donations and cleaning, volunteers help nonprofits complete tasks they might otherwise have to pay for—allowing them to focus their limited resources on their mission.

Why It Matters

Nonprofits are often stretched thin. Day of Caring provides essential support by helping fill in the gaps—completing meaningful projects that save agencies time and money while building lasting community connections.
