There were more than 50 project sites at this year’s Rowan County United Way Day of Caring. The annual event allows companies and individuals to donate their time to service projects.
Jenn DeMarco was one of about a dozen volunteers from Snyder Electric who built a donation drop-off box at the Salvation Army Family store on Jake Alexander Boulevard.
The day began early for many who started with a breakfast at the Salisbury YMCA. The day ended with lots of tired, sweaty volunteers, who wouldn’t have it any other way.
“I wanted to help out. It feels good,” DeMarco said. DeMarco recently moved from New Hampshire and this is her first week with the company.
