Small Acts Create a Big Impact
Week of Caring is a time for our community to come together and give back. Companies, volunteers, schools, and nonprofit partners work side by side on projects that support children and families across our region. From hands-on service to meeting immediate needs, each project is an opportunity to strengthen places where our community learns, grows, and comes together.
Across our community, companies are bringing teams together to serve, support local organizations, and give back where help is needed most.
Supply sponsorships give companies a hands-on way to support students while bringing employees together through team building exercises. SMILE Kits provide dental hygiene supplies for children, while the Student Enrichment supply drive combines a traditional drive with a team-building activity twist. Community teams will work together to assemble structures using supplies they collected as a competition and final supplies will be donated to youth serving partners.

When companies volunteer together, the impact reaches far beyond one project.
Across our community, companies are bringing teams together to serve, support local organizations, and give back where help is needed most.
Giving back is one way we show up for the people and places that make our community home.
Whether you’re looking for a way to bring your team together or want to give your time on your own, there are opportunities to get involved. When we give our time, we strengthen this community we call home.
