Day of Action Event Banner

Sioux Empire United Way (SEUW) is excited to announce the inaugural 2024 Day of Action event, proudly hosted by our dedicated volunteer group, Volunteer United (VU). We extend a warm invitation to individuals and groups alike to join forces in creating a significant and positive difference within our community. In partnership with SEUW's local partner agencies, this event aims to forge connections between volunteers and local organizations, offering insights into their impactful programs and services that directly influence lives in our community. Participants will have the opportunity to engage in hands-on projects that support these programs, fostering a spirit of giving back and collective assistance.

“The Day of Action brings together passionate volunteers to magnify the impact that Volunteer United aims to create year-round. This is a day to bring the community together to make a big difference. The collaboration between our volunteers and Sioux Empire United Way partners will be incredible” said Anna Jankord, Volunteer United Steering Committee Chair.

Following the day's activities, volunteers are invited to attend the Volunteer United Annual Celebration from 4-6 p.m. at The Social.
