What is Day of Caring?
United Way’s Day of Caring is a great opportunity for individuals, families, friends or teams to spend a morning giving back to the community. Join folks from all around this county for an opportunity to make a real difference.

Nonprofits often don’t have the resources to keep up with all of the good work they do – so this is our chance to help them and make Indian River County a better place.

The day begins at 8:00 AM with a welcome, sign in, and complimentary breakfast at the Jackie Robinson Training Complex. Volunteer projects begin at the host site locations promptly at 9:00 AM.
Where is the kick-off breakfast?
Jackie Robinson Training Complex at 3901 26th Street, Vero Beach, FL 32960. Breakfast will be served at 8:00 AM. Projects begin promptly at 9:00 AM.
What if my group has particular needs or limitations?
During registration, you will have an opportunity to submit additional information including special accommodations.
What do we need to bring?
In many cases, all materials for a project will be provided; however, depending on the project, you may be asked if you can bring extra tools if they are available (ie. a shovel, rake, drill, etc.). Sunscreen and bug spray is also a good idea if you will be working outside.
What is the deadline to register to volunteer?
Friday, September 26
can my nonprofit submit a project even if we are not a current UWIRC funded partner?
