Our Program:
The Retired and Senior Volunteer
Program (RSVP) provides opportunities for people 55 and over to make
a difference in their community through volunteer service. RSVP
volunteers contribute anywhere from a few to over forty hours a
week, serving through schools, day care centers, police departments,
hospitals and other nonprofit and public organizations to help meet
critical community needs. RSVP offers maximum flexibility and choice
to its volunteers. RSVP matches the personal interests and skills of
older Americans with opportunities to help solve community problems
and offers supplemental insurance while on duty, and on-the-job
training from the agency or organization where volunteers are
placed.
Volunteer
Activities:
RSVP Volunteers
provide a wide range of important community services in areas such
as homeland security, public safety, health, education, the
environment and elder care. They may tutor children in reading and
math, respond to natural disasters, help to build houses, model
parenting skills to teen parents, participate in neighborhood watch
programs, plan community gardens, deliver meals, or help community
organizations operate more efficiently. Whatever your interests and
background, there is certainly an RSVP opportunity to match!
