2009 Youth Day of Caring

Washtenaw United Way and Washtenaw County WATT (Washtenaw Area Teens for Tomorrow) have teamed up for the fourth annual Youth Day of Caring!  The event will be held on Saturday, May 2nd from 10:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. Youth teams will fan out to work at community service projects throughout the greater Washtenaw area.

Past projects have included gardening, cleaning up areas for new playgrounds, painting, and organizing art material.  The Youth Day of Caring is modeled after the annual United Way of Washtenaw County Day of Caring (May 7th).

This is a wonderful opportunity to engage the youth of Washtenaw County in the spirit of volunteerism.  Students from Washtenaw County public and private high schools and middle schools, Washtenaw Community College, U of M and EMU will volunteer at each participating non-profit agency. Students, teachers, or community volunteers who are interested in participating please register online at (the registration deadline already passed) or call WCC Student Development and Activities, at (734) 973-3500.
