May of Caring Team Registration

May of Caring is a wonderful community wide initiative designed to provide support to local nonprofits by encouraging individuals, families and corporate partners to select a project(s) to complete during the month of May.

The United Way of Davidson County has been serving in our community for 70 years. We celebrate the longevity of our organization and recognize that we are here because of generous volunteers like you.
