Day of Caring shows what’s possible when people come together with a shared purpose. At Libro, we believe in building vibrant and resilient communities, and we’re proud to stand alongside United Way—creating hands-on impact while helping our staff connect more deeply with the communities we serve.”
— Jason Dearing, Regional Director, Libro Credit Union
Thank you Libro Credit Union for being our Presenting Sponsor for 10 Years!
June’s Day of Caring is complete, and the impact is already being felt across our community.
This year’s Day of Caring is a bit different. Instead of one single day of volunteer action, we are bringing people together throughout the year, creating even more opportunities for workplaces, volunteers, and agencies to connect and make a difference. The first round of Day of Caring activities has now wrapped up, with more to come in August and December.
So far, Day of Caring of 2026 has brought together 288 volunteers from 12 workplaces ready to roll up their sleeves and put local love into action. Across our region, volunteers spent the day supporting 15 community agencies through projects that help create stronger spaces and stronger communities.
This Day of Caring we built care packages with Street Level Women at Risk, planted hundreds of plants with our friends at Type Diabeat- it, cleaned a park out of garbage alongside Crouch Neighborhood Resource Centre, and so much more. Together, volunteers supported agencies with important tasks that may otherwise take weeks to complete.
1,152 volunteer hours were donated, but what stands out most is the spirit behind them. Every hour given, every project completed, and every helping hand reflects what can happen when our community comes together.
We are especially grateful to Libro Credit Union, our Presenting Sponsor, whose partnership and commitment over the past decade has helped Day of Caring continue creating opportunities for community connection and impact.
While one Day of Caring may be complete, we are just getting started.
We’re excited to continue the momentum as Day of Caring returns. Together, we will keep building stronger communities, one project, one volunteer, and one act of care at a time.
