SEPTEMBER 18-19, 2025
Nancy Perry's Day of Caring is a one-day community service event that brings together volunteers from local businesses, organizations, and the community to complete meaningful service projects for nonprofit agencies in our community. Named for Nancy Perry, who served as president and CEO of United Way of Greater Topeka for 24 years, the Day of Caring was established by United Way of Kaw Valley to promote the spirit and value of volunteerism and increase the awareness of agencies who are working hard to meet the critical needs of our community. We continue this annual tradition and celebrate the impact that people working together can make on our community.
