Junction City, KS – United Way of Junction City-Geary County has announced that they are still seeking volunteers to assist with the annual Day of Caring, scheduled for November 23rd. The event will run from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon.
“We have had numerous households contact us requesting our assistance in helping with fall yard clean up, pulling weeds, removing yard waste, and raking leaves. Volunteers provide yard services to the elderly and disabled. Often, this is the only interaction that the homeowners get, and they look forward to this event every year.” says Nichole Mader, Executive Director.
They average between 15 and 20 houses each year, and the impact is more than just cleaning up a yard, it is showing elders that they still matter. To sign up to help, contact the United Way office at (785) 238-2117 or email them at [email protected].
