Tell us your Days of Action ideas
United Way is issuing a nationwide call-to-action for individuals to give, advocate or volunteer on issues relating to education, income or health-the three building blocks required for a quality life. And YOU are invited to join us. Getting involved is easy...develop a project idea, invite your family and friends and apply for the "Day of Action in a Box." There's one catch...you have to promise to tell us your story.
Bold fields are required.
