Equipping Volunteers – United Way Hands On

Celebrating Volunteers by Equipping Volunteers

This year’s Ignite virtual event will take place on April 22nd at 10:30 a.m. on Facebook Live. In lieu of an in-person event, United Way Hands On is raising funds to purchase and equip a mobile tool trailer.

For $35, the cost of an IGNITE ticket, you can help Hands On purchase needed supplies such as hammers, nails, lumber, paint, paint brushes, trash bags, brooms, mops, etc. Our goal is to raise $20,000.

Contact Benga Harrison at bharrison@uwca.org or 205.458.8930 with questions or to take advantage of sponsorship opportunities.

Sponsorship Opportunities

All sponsors will not only help us purchase a trailer, they will also help us with needed ongoing materials and supplies.

We have three sponsorship opportunities available:

$5,000 – Your organization’s logo and name on the trailer and recognition as a United Way Hands On project organizer

$2,500 – Your organization’s logo and name on the trailer

$1,000 – Your organization’s name on the trailer

What is Ignite?

Each year, thousands of volunteers spend countless hours working to better communities throughout Central Alabama, largely without recognition. United Way Hands On honors these tireless, unsung heroes, their outstanding service and incredible impact at the annual Ignite Volunteer Awards. We know that these volunteers are truly the heart of the community. Nominees come from all ages and backgrounds but are bonded through their passion and commitment to service.
