35th Annual Day of Caring

For 35 years, Day of Caring has brought our community together in service. The 2026 Day of Caring continued that tradition, bringing together more than 1,300 volunteers who completed more than 60 projects across Allen County.

The 35th annual event also welcomed new organizations participating as both volunteer teams and project hosts. Several large projects brought together multiple organizations and teams, demonstrating the power of collaboration and the greater impact we can make when we join forces.

Day of Caring is about more than completing projects. It is an opportunity for organizations, businesses, volunteers and community partners to come together, serve our community and strengthen the connections that make Allen County a better place to live and work.

We are grateful to all of the volunteers, project hosts and partners who made the 2026 Day of Caring possible. We extend a special thank-you to our generous event sponsors:
