Day of Action 2026

An event flyer for "Day of Action" on Friday, June 12. The top half of the poster features the event title in large, bold, white block letters with a yellow outline. Small illustrations of volunteers are integrated into the letters: a person digging with a shovel, another painting a wall, one gardening, and two people walking together. Below the title, a blue ribbon banner reads "FRIDAY, JUNE 12." The text below states: "Connecting volunteers with mission-driven projects across Tompkins County. Learn more at uwtc.org/dayofaction or email us at info@uwtc.org." The bottom section lists "Title Sponsors" with logos for Cayuga Media Group, Dryden Mutual Insurance Co., Cornell University, Tompkins Banking | Insurance | Wealth, Vector Magnetics, Cayuga Health, and United Way of Tompkins County. The background is a stylized, yellow-toned illustration of a city street.Connecting volunteers with mission-driven projects across Tompkins County.
