Day of Caring 2024
Routt County Day of Caring is May 22nd from 9 AM to 1PM
Moffat County Day of Caring is June 1st from 9 AM to 1PM
Day of Caring is a half-day event that connects volunteers with projects for nonprofits, government, and low-income individuals in the community, hosted by United Way of the Yampa Valley since 1998. Every spring, individual and corporate volunteers join forces to share their time and talents on projects at nonprofits across the Yampa Valley. By participating in Day of Caring, volunteers can gain hands-on experience in giving back to their community. Their work can save labor costs, which allows nonprofits to focus their efforts on where they can have the most impact.
Volunteering is essential to keeping our community connected and supporting local causes. You can change a life with your time and talent when you volunteer with United Way of the Yampa Valley.

I just wanted to say thank you so much on behalf of Discovery Learning Center. Our volunteers came in their bright red shirts and really worked hard cleaning all our windows before our “graduations”! Everyone has commented on what a great job they did, and they did it with a smile!
