Day of Caring Team Leads

Day of Caring Team Leads:

United Way's annual Day of Caring is less than a week away (Wednesday, Sept. 13). By now, you should have received your team's project assignment(s). Here's a quick list to help you prepare:

Communicate

As Lead, we expect you to share important info with your Team.

Project Site(s)

If you haven't already, contact your project site to discuss any questions or details. While volunteers may bring a few items to the site, it is the Project Site / Nonprofits' responsibility to provide any required tools or materials. Project sites are also expected to supply snacks, beverages, and lunch.

Breakfast at the Eclipse Center

Please remind team members that registered how important it is to honor the commitment. Stewardship drives us, and meals have already been ordered and paid for ($17+ each). On behalf of our cost-conscientious team and generous sponsors, thank you!

Social Media

We love before & after project photos, videos, and selfies! Post directly to United Way Blackhawk Region's Facebook page or tag us. Use the hashtags #LiveUnited #DayofCaring

T-Shirts

Teams are strongly encouraged to wear Day of Caring t-shirts to recognize our generous sponsors. Please pick up your team's t-shirts according to the table below.

Beloit Teams: the entrance to Irontek is located 645 3rd St.

Janesville Teams: the entrance to United Way is on the south side nearest Bodacious Shops.

Day of Caring Sponsors

Day of Caring is made possible by the generous support of our sponsors, as well as a grant from the Volunteer Generation Fund in partnership with AmeriCorps. Sponsorship dollars afford hundreds of volunteers a Day of Caring t-shirt and help to offset the rising costs of an exciting breakfast event.

Thank you to United Way Blackhawk Region's 2023 Day of Caring Sponsors!
