The United Way of Jefferson and North Walworth Counties annual Season of Caring kicks off October 3rd.

Executive Director Elizabeth Ellis-Bols says it’s a free six-week program intended to encourage and inspire citizens to support, give back and connect with the community.

Participants complete six weekly missions that range from donating an hour of your time to connecting with others.

Full details for the Season of Caring, including instruction sheets for each individual day, hashtag details, Facebook images and more, can be found on the Season of Caring page on the United Way’s website.
