Retired senior volunteer program history

Filling out an enrollment form begins the membership process. Print out the application or contact a staff member for additional information. Orientations are given in small groups and individualized to meet people's needs. Staff will then assist you to find a volunteer opportunity that is just right for you.

When you join RSVP, you joins hundreds of other volunteers to demonstrate the wealth of caring and sharing among seniors, It eliminates stereotypes about seniors no longer contributing to their communities. Belonging to both organizations just makes you a part of the larger volunteer community. Very often you see volunteers wearing more than one name badge. The most important thing is to stay active and help in the community where it is needed.

Not if you prefer. We let you tell us how many or how few volunteer opportunities are the right amount for you. If you let us know your preference, we can do a better job of matching you to a potential volunteer opportunity. The time sheet allows us to keep accurate records of who is volunteering, what they are doing, and how much time they are spending at a particular volunteer site.

We use this information for reporting to the federal, state and local government as well as to organizations from whom we receive funding.

It is also a way to track community needs because the time sheets show us where volunteers are putting in their time. Our records show others about seniors and what an asset they are to their community, and it certainly tells a powerful story about all of you. Generally, if you volunteer for a nonprofit agency in the community or perform a service for which you do not get paid, it counts. Just put it on your time sheet, and if there are questions we will give you a call.
