Hello friends!We are currently accepting both nonprofit projects and volunteers for our upcoming Week of Caring Volunteer Extravaganza!
What's Week of Caring, you ask?
Every year, United Way of Mat-Su recruits, coordinates and hosts volunteer at nonprofit projects around the Valley. This week is designed to ease the burden of spring projects submitted by our fellow nonprofits. UWMS provides volunteer coordination so that these projects can be completed, when they might otherwise go unfinished.
Some of our traditional projects have included spring prep at the AK Wild Bird Rehab Center, playground repairs and cleanup at Alpine Historical Park and the Palmer Amoosement Park, and planting seedlings at APU Spring Creek Farm. These are just a few of the projects to choose from!
This year’s dates are May 11-May 15, with most projects scheduled from 10am-3pm. Details for individual sites are still in the works, but we encourage volunteers to fill out our preliminary interest form.
Nonprofit sites are encouraged to also apply. WOC volunteers particularly love hands-on, interactive, outdoor projects, and snacks of all kinds are always welcome. United Way of Mat-Su will provide snacks also, bottled water, and a variety of tools from our Tool Library if needed.
Nonprofits and interested volunteers can fill out the appropriate form HERE:
