Junction City, KS – Junction City, KS – United Way of Junction City–Geary County is excited to invite community members to join its annual Day of Caring on November 22, 2025, from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Volunteers are still needed to help make this special day of service a success!

“This event is one of our favorite traditions each year,” says Nichole Mader, Executive Director. “We’ve already received many requests from households needing a hand with fall yard cleanup—pulling weeds, removing yard waste, and raking leaves. Our volunteers make a real difference for elderly and disabled residents, and for many, it’s a day of connection and kindness that they truly look forward to.”

Each year, volunteers assist with 10–15 homes, creating an impact that goes far beyond tidying a yard—it’s about reminding our neighbors that they are valued and cared for.

If you’d like to be part of this uplifting community effort, please contact the United Way office at (785) 238-2117 or email [email protected] to sign up.
