A DAY OF SERVICE, ROOTED IN ALOHA
Aloha United Way’s Day of Caring brings individuals, families, businesses, and organizations together for a day of hands-on volunteer service. Working alongside local nonprofits, volunteers will complete projects that strengthen our community, improve facilities, and support organizations serving our neighbors.
From painting and landscaping to assembling packets and tackling special projects, there’s a way for everyone to lend a hand. It’s a wonderful opportunity to give back, meet new people, and experience what we can accomplish when our community comes together.
