United Way KFL&A

Day of Caring

Day of Caring brings together volunteers from local organizations and local agencies, to provide much needed assistance through projects that often include repair work, gardening, painting, and cleaning. This fun event generates a team building experience and community engagement for all involved. This one-day community-wide blitz of painting, landscaping, and light maintenance for local and under-resourced agencies will conclude with a celebration following the Day of Caring projects.

Thank you to our Day of Caring Sponsors!

United Way of KFL&A would like to acknowledge this traditional territory’s longer existence and its significance for the Indigenous people who lived and continue to live on Turtle Island.

We are situated on traditional Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee and Huron-Wendat land. There are Métis and other non-status First People from many Indigenous Nations present in our community today. This acknowledgement symbolizes the United Way KFL&A’s first step, of many, along this path toward Indigenous reconciliation, in a respectful manner.
