The Centre County United Way Annual Day of Caring
Thursday, October 9, 2025
The 31st Annual United Way Day of Caring was another grand success at the Centre Furnace Mansion!
Thank you to the Centre County United Way, Penn State OPP, OLLI at Penn State, Minitab, KBB Realtors, Joe Keiser, Penn State Women’s Lacrosse, Saint Joseph’s Catholic Academy students, Penn State students, Tau Kappa Epsilon, and Homewrights Construction for a highly successful Day of Caring at the Centre Furnace Mansion! And to Centre County Historical Society gardeners and volunteers for overseeing efforts and making it all happen.
To the nearly 200 people who came to help out doing everything from mulching garden beds, weeding, shed clean-up, and painting, to indoor projects like window and floor washing, lunch assistance, and donating for lunch and other supplies – congratulations on your great work.
You made the day extraordinary. To be a host site for the United Way Day of Caring is an amazing gift that makes a huge difference to the Historical Society and the Centre Furnace Mansion.
All of us at the Centre County Historical Society extend enthusiastic cheers and sincere gratitude!!
