For the first time ever, the 2024 Nancy Perry Day of Caring spanned two days, September 19 and 20. In all 1,047 volunteers registered and completed 4,188 hours of capacity-building service across Shawnee County, even expanding into Douglas and Jefferson counties. A sunny day meant ZERO cancelled projects!

  • 62 projects filled
  • 30 agencies benefitted from this labor boost
  • 23 companies and organizations brought volunteers
  • Your economic impact for the day? $140,088.60 (At the Independent Sector volunteer value rate of $33.45/hour)

That is 1 month of work for 25 full-time employees, benefitting agencies, families and individuals in need across our service area. Thank you!

Thank you again to all the sponsors who make this day even more special with their support!
