The University of Evansville is proud to announce that Brittany Soderberg, a resident of Indianapolis, IN volunteered for United Way of Southwestern Indiana's Day of Caring.

The annual Day of Caring, held this year on Friday, September 7, encourages community residents to donate their time and talents to local nonprofit organizations. Approximately 100 volunteers from the University of Evansville, including Soderberg, performed community service at four different locations. Soderberg, majoring in Theatre, volunteered at YMCA Caldwell Community Outreach Center.

"Social responsibility with compassion is a hallmark of the University of Evansville experience, and last year, UE students contributed more than 19,000 hours of service to the Evansville community," said Brian Conner, UE assistant director of residence life and coordinator of UE's Day of Caring volunteers. "We were thrilled to have Brittany Soderberg on board for this year's Day of Caring. Brittany's time, hard work, and willingness to serve truly made a difference to local nonprofits in need."
