Stuff The Bus-
For this years Day of Caring project we made sure that every 1st
grader was going to start the year right will all the tools need
for them to succeed. During the first days of school volunteers
and staff handed out over 900 backpack stuffed with pencils,
scissors, notebooks, rulers, etc.
This was only
possible because of the generous donations that we received
through companies, small business, individuals, and supporters.

2008- Pack The Pantries
In 2008, we did something different. This year we
are looking to mobilize the caring power of the community to
gather food and personal items to stock pantries.
The reasoning? With oil soaring to over $135 dollars a
barrel, gasoline prices at or over $4.00 a gallon we are
seeing trends that concerns us for that upcoming winter. It
is not just the cost of these things but the effect that it
is having on all consumer goods.
By having a county-wide drive
to collect food, household and personal items for this years
Day of Caring project we collected enough supplies so
that the pantries can provide these materials
to our high risk families during this winter.
2007- and earlier
In the past the Day of Caring projects were designed to
mobilize volunteers to participate in various project with many
different agencies over a two week period in September. Many
employees would visit agencies around the county and do
everything from yard work to filling documents.
Thank you to
all that
participated!
