Day of Caring with Lumber River United Way

 

Lumber River United Way’s annual Day of Caring is scheduled for Friday, May 10, 2024. Lumber River United Way Day of Caring is an annual day of service that takes place on the Friday of Mother’s Day weekend. United Way invites organizations across Bladen, Hoke, and Robeson to come together to complete various projects that benefit the community. This is our biggest corporate volunteer event, with over 350 volunteers completing over 1,166 hours of volunteer service. Looking for a meaningful team bonding or building experience? Want to give back to the community?

 

A complete list of projects can be found at https://www.lumberriveruw.org/day-caring and on a first registered first served basis for signing up. Individuals and businesses unable to volunteer for larger projects may consider stopping by Lumberton Chevrolet Buick GMC Hummer, Bladen, or Hoke County Extension offices to sew pillowcases for patients, homeless students, and seniors for a 15-minute volunteer project!

 

 

Contact our Day of Caring liaison Tomeika Munn to learn more about how to incorporate Day of Caring into your organization’s community involvement plan.

This year Robeson County 4-H will be assisting with a pillowcase sewing project.  If you can't join us on the day of caring you can pick up a kit and complete it prior to the day of caring and drop it off at our office.  For more information on kits please contact Shea Ann DeJarnette or Jade McNeill at (910) 671-3276.
