Be a part of something bigger on September 11, 2026.  

Day of Caring is United Way of the Midlands largest community-wide day of service where individuals, families, and teams of coworkers and friends can volunteer at nonprofit agencies and schools throughout the greater metropolitan area. Volunteer teams of all sizes tackle meaningful projects addressing community and agency needs. United Way of the Midlands facilitates this event to promote and celebrate the spirit of volunteerism throughout our service area of Douglas, Sarpy and Pottawattamie Counties.

With this year marking the 25th anniversary of 9/11, we are proud to share an upcoming, community-wide initiative: Heartland Honors 9/11, a volunteer-led effort bringing the Omaha metro together to remember, reflect, and say thank you to service members, veterans, and first responders through acts of service and remembrance.
