Day of Caring, a collaboration between Orrville Area United Way and the Orrville Area Chamber of Commerce, brings together businesses, individuals, and students for a morning of meaningful volunteer work. This annual event unites our community as we support local organizations, complete community improvement projects, and strengthen the bonds that make our community thrive.

This year, we’re thrilled to welcome Orrville High School seniors as they join volunteers to make an even greater difference!
