Do It Day projects are designed to require a group of people - their time, skills or just plain "sweat energy" - for just one day during which time a significant result can be achieved that will further the work of your organisation.
This may include needing support from a brand specialist to develop a brand strategy for your organisation, a team of web developers to build your internet site, ten painters and some paint to change the face of your buildings, or a team of able-bodied, energetic people complete with spades, forks & wheelbarrows, to dig and plant a vegetable garden for your organisation.
