Since its’ inception, the volunteers who participate in a Great Day of Service assist dozens of organizations, primarily non-profit. The organizations provide a myriad of services from feeding the hungry to sheltering the homeless, from animal protection to environmental cleanup and more. Hundreds of volunteer hours have been donated to support the work of these organizations.
We're so proud that lasting relationships between volunteers and organizations are formed each year during a Great Day of Service. We encourage all participants to learn more about the organizations hosting worksites for the 2008 Great Day of Service. Please consider volunteering with one of more of these organizations throughout the rest of the year!
We invite everyone to participate in the Blood Drive through the RI Blood Center at a Great Day of Service! Please consider making a blood donation during event check-in and kickoff in both Barrington AND Providence from 8-9am.
