PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) — The 12 News team will be out and about on Thursday and Friday to give back to the community as part of Nexstar’s annual Founder’s Day of Caring.

Nexstar stations in 117 markets across the country are teaming up with nonprofit organizations and public agencies to complete a variety of service projects.

"In times of crisis, these organizations mobilize quickly to help those most in need, often making a critical difference in the lives of millions of people every day. But they can’t do it alone. They need help — and that’s where we come in," Nexstar’s website reads.

Here’s a look at what we're working on:
