    United Way Day of Action

    Each year on and around June 21, United Way of Central Alabama joins with hundreds of other United Ways around the world for United Way’s Day of Action.

    It’s a global volunteering activity, where people can take a small step to make a big difference. For some, it’s stuffing backpacks full of books to encourage reading and improve early literacy. For others, it’s planting community gardens to foster civic pride and promote affordable, healthy eating. For United Way, Day of Action mirrors the work that we do all year long, building stronger, more equitable communities where everyone can thrive.
