United Way seeking volunteers for Day of Caring

The United Way of Bartholomew County is still looking for more than 100 volunteers for its annual Day of Caring event next month.

The Day of Caring, which will be May 10, is an annual full-day volunteer event where local businesses and community members are connected with local non-profit and residential volunteer projects in Bartholomew County.

“We’ve got a lot of different opportunities with the local non-profits, anything from painting inside to stuffing envelopes, different administrative tasks, sorting donations,” said Kyle Hendricks, United Way spokesman. “The projects we’re looking for now are more outdoor-related, like weeding and mulching.”

Additional volunteer activities include planting flowers, painting, organizing and sorting donations and making small home repairs.
