Friday, May 9, is Moffat County Day of Caring. It is a half-day event that connects volunteers with projects for nonprofits, government, and low-income individuals in the community, hosted by United Way of the Yampa Valley. Bank of the San Juans is sponsoring the event. Edy George is the branch manager in Craig, who says it is important to support United Way of the Yampa Valley.
“It takes a village, you know. We do a service for people that need some help, like with cars, picking up their yard, whatever that might be. It also to bring recognition to the Day of Caring in Moffat County with United Way to bring in more resources for them to continue to help the people in the community that need help financially.”
You will see different groups of volunteers today, throughout the Moffat County community, helping with various projects for people and nonprofits who may need it. Routt County Day of Caring is May 21.
