Volunteer Week

2025 Volunteer Week Banner

What is Volunteer Week?
Volunteer Week is a nationwide celebration held each April to recognize the individuals and organizations who show up for their communities and create lasting change through service. At United Way Emerald Coast, Volunteer Week reflects what we see every day. Neighbors coming together to support one another and create real, meaningful change.

Last year, because of YOU during Volunteer Week, we:

  • completed 43 service projects at schools, non-profits, and municipalities
  • hosted 3 kit builds across 5 locations
  • had 360 volunteers step up and give their time
  • contributed 1,800 total volunteer hours
  • created a community impact valued at $60,282 through hands-on service and shared effort!
