At Onsharp, we love giving back to our community and improving the lives of others. Each year we get excited when United Way Day of Caring comes around, and this year was no different. We jumped at the opportunity to #ChangetheStoryFM and #LiveUnitedFM, and were thrilled to help out at homes across Fargo-Moorhead.
Throughout the day, we raked leaves, mowed lawns, vacuumed carpets, scrubbed floors, and cleaned windows. But most importantly, we improved the lives for the residents of the homes in which we volunteered. We exchanged stories, shared family photos, and were even lucky enough to be treated to freshly baked cookies and lemonade!
Working to make the biggest impact we could, here’s a look at what our day consisted of:

And it was exciting to see other companies out volunteering, too. The United Way Day of Caring had over 1,600 volunteers helping more than 450 seniors throughout the area. It’s great seeing our community come together to make an impact in other’s lives.
