It was a busy day for hundreds of volunteers cleaning up the east side of Youngstown. The annual United Way Day of Caring drew in more people than ever before. 

Eastgate Regional Council of Governments, in partnership with Youngstown City Health District, Youngstown Neighborhood Development Corp., Mercy Health Foundation Mahoning Valley and Youngstown State University Regional Economic Development Initiative, is conducting a survey to assess the ease of access, availability and quality of food in Youngstown.

The 5th annual Youngstown United Way Day of Caring kicked off today at the Covelli Centre.

A sea of volunteers clad in neon-yellow shirts gathered alongside a pair of trucks emblazoned with the word “REVITALIZE.” 

The United Way of Youngstown and the Mahoning Valley’s annual Day of Caring today got off to a cooler start than usual.
