We love acts of kindness, even when they aren’t random. And we’re more than happy to share some news about United Way of Tarrant County, which is rallying for the community to collect and donate items for families, individuals and older adults as part of the annual Day of Action on Tuesday, June 21.

Every year, United Way of Tarrant County invites the community to join the Day of Action to help with immediate and emerging needs within Tarrant County.
