Showing they care: Juneau celebrates Day of Caring

United Way's Day of Caring, held Oct. 4 and 6, matched up approximately 120 volunteers from 15 local businesses with projects at 14 area nonprofit organizations. Each team volunteered its time and skills in order to complete much-needed service projects for the nonprofits, including painting dormitories, building an accessibility ramp, shampooing carpets, holding a food drive at local grocery stores and repainting the Mendenhall Valley Skate Park.
