June 21 United Way of Northwest CT Day of Caring

This year's Day of Caring Committee is already planning projects and scheduling volunteers. Committee members (pictured below, left to right) are: Pat Marciano, United Way Office Manager; Josh Ferreira, Financial Advisor; Kevin Canady, Northwestern CT Community College; Alyssa Caliendo, Village Mortgage Company; Janic Wojtczak, Litchfield Bancorp; and Tiffany Hussey, Litchfield Bancorp. Members not pictured include Stephanie Hart, CT Mutual Holding Company; Paul McLaughlin, Litchfield Bancorp; and Lauren Smith, NWCT Chamber of Commerce.

Projects scheduled to date include painting at Catholic Charities, gardening and building a shed at Falls Village Day Care, painting a LARC group home and maintenance at Camp Moe, and planting a garden and installing cabinets at Winsted Area Child Care. 

While projects primarily benefit United Way member agencies, other non-profits and civic organizations can call the United Way at (860) 489-4131 to inquire about submitting a project. 

Volunteers are always needed! Call or email pat@northwestunitedway.org if you or a group are interested.

The United Way Day of Caring is designed to complete projects that an agency would otherwise not be able to undertake due to lack of funds or personnel, and provides volunteer opportunities for area citizens and businesses.
