800+ Volunteers Take Action! – Day of Caring 2026
United We VOLUNTEER! 🫶 This year’s Day of Caring event was one for the books. Over 800 volunteers took action at 39 sites around Bay County, cleaning up our city and county parks, giving a hand to some of our non-profit friends in the area, and beautifying our green spaces, making it the largest Day of Caring yet! We are so grateful to our community members who showed up to care for Bay County, and had fun while doing so! ❤️ This impactful event could not have been possible without our amazing community partners, Bay City Government, Habitat for Humanity of Bay County, UA Local 85 ,Bay Metro Transit, Paul Davis Restoration of the Great Lakes Bay Region. 🤝
