Take part in New York City's largest hands-on volunteer day by joining more than 6,000 volunteers as we paint a brighter future for New York City public school students. This year, volunteers will create murals, paint classrooms, plant school gardens, and engage students and families in service.

We're looking for 90 great schools to join us for New York Cares Day on Saturday, October 13th.

Know of a great school who should participate? You can apply online today.
