These projects may take place in a single day, during a focused volunteer shift, or through a short-term effort that helps a community partner complete meaningful work with extra hands and organized support.
Through Done in a Day, volunteers can help with food pantry support, food bank distributions, seasonal giving efforts, Angel Tree assistance, donation sorting, supply packing, community events, and other projects that support children, families, and neighbors facing essential needs.
The value of Done in a Day is simple: when a need arises, we help make it easier for people to show up.
