Volunteers across the county are rolling up their sleeves in support of United Way Oxford's "Day of Caring". 85 participants are painting, gardening, or serving lunches in Tillsonburg, Ingersoll and Woodstock. Team Members from Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada, along with VIP Home and Yard are throwing their support behind the cause at DASO today. DASO's Development and Communications Manager, Barb Wright says TMMC have supported their efforts in a number of ways over the years. "This is special, it's so wonderful that we can welcome some of their employees to our facility, our shelter here. It just strengthens the partnership so that's why we're grateful to them". Team Members from TMMC Woodstock and Cambridge attended today's event. TMMC Quality Control Assistant Manager (Cambridge) Melinda Bell encourages other businesses, organizations and individuals to get involved. "Just get out there and see what is available. It doesn't matter, any kind of volunteering; it's a great feeling just to know that you are having some input to make somebody's life a little bit better". United Way Oxford have 13 projects in total going on today including the work happening at DASO.
