On September 19, 2007, over 2,300 volunteers from local businesses and organizations proved once again that they care about our community by reporting to work sites at local nonprofit organizations and public schools to tackle meaningful volunteer projects. Volunteers made a difference at 230 project sites in the Charlottesville, Albemarle, Fluvanna, Louisa, and Nelson communities. 
The
Day of Caring was established in 1992 by the United Way-Thomas Jefferson
Area to promote the spirit and value of volunteerism, increase the awareness
of local human service agencies and schools, and demonstrate what people
working together for the community's good can accomplish. In 1999, the
Day of Caring was renamed the United Way Laurence E. Richardson Day of
Caring in honor of Larry Richardson, long-time volunteer of the United
Way and the community, and past president of the Charlottesville Broadcasting
Company.
