100 Days. 100 Ways. 100 Years.
United Way of Greater Chattanooga and its volunteers have worked to make a positive impact in our city for 100 years now. For the next 100 days, you can help us continue this good work by completing even just one of the 100 simple acts of service to show kindness in your community. It only takes a few minutes to change the world for the better.
At the end of this 100-day stretch, United Way is hosting a two-day event packed full of amazing volunteer opportunities for community members. These two Impact Days, September 16th and 17th, will culminate in a block party celebration of our centennial, and we can’t wait to celebrate with all our amazing supporters and volunteers!
Will you join us?
Centennial Club – Together We Can Change the World
In honor of 100 amazing years, we’ve created a Centennial Club in conjunction with these volunteering opportunities and upcoming block party. When you join the Centennial Club, you get access to fun benefits such as the ability to track your progress as you complete items on the 100 Ways list.
You’ll also receive fun thank-you merch as you reach checkpoints in the process – the more acts of service you complete, the better! So grab a family member, friend, or coworker and challenge them to participate with you. Can you complete all 100 ways? (We know you can.)
Impact Days –
Volunteer With Us
In addition to our 100 ways to show support in the community, we’re also hosting a two-day volunteering event with various opportunities to serve. During these Impact Days, the United Way of Greater Chattanooga will work with local volunteers through projects purposed to better our community. We know this will be and undertaking, and we need your help!
Through continued innovation, inspired vision, and local partnerships, we hope to continue our work in the community for the next 100 years starting right now, and that’s where you come in. We’re asking community members to sign up to volunteer, and help us make these Impact Days a great success!
In addition to volunteers, we are also asking local nonprofits and organizations to submit project concepts. If you have an idea for a community project, tell us all about it.
