On May 18, the Genesee County United Way will be employing the resources of 350+ voluteers for the 9th Annual Day of Caring. The United Way Day of Caring provides local businesses with volunteer opportunities throughout Genesee County where their employees can harness their energies to make Genesee County a better place to live. This year there are more than 35 nonprofit agencies that will benefit from volunteer support to paint, landscape and perform general beautification projects. The kick-off event at Dwyer Stadium is sponsored by Lawley Genesee and includes breakfast and cheers performed by each volunteer team. Following a great day of hard work, the volunteers will partake in a wrap-up celebration at Terry Hills Restaurant and Banquet Facility. Stories will be told, a slide show of the day will be shown and all will have a good time! It is estimated that a total of more than 3,200 people hours will be contributed throughout the day with an estimated $48,000 in labor costs provided.  Perhaps the largest single volunteering day in Genesee County!
