RSVP enriches retirement for senior adults through significant community service work by encouraging volunteers to bring a lifetime of talent, experiences, skills and hobbies to community projects and organizations.  
 
RSVP, one of the largest volunteer efforts in the nation, engages people age 55 and older in a diverse range of volunteer activities. Volunteers organize neighborhood watch programs, tutor children in schools, work with Habitat for Humanity, assist victims of natural disasters and serve their community in a myriad of other ways. Nationwide through RSVP, more than 480,000 volunteers serve a few hours a week to nearly full time at an estimated 65,000 local and national non-profit agencies. Volunteers are not paid, but sponsoring organizations may reimburse them for costs incurred during their volunteer service, including meals and transportation.
 
Volunteer Benefits
  • Supplemental insurance: Accident, Personal Liability, Excess Auto, Accidental Death and Disbursement
  • Annual recognition events
  • Monthly newsletter
  • Training from volunteer stations
  • Monthly Lunch n' Learn
  • The chance to use your lifetime of skills and experience
  • The opportunity to learn something new and meet new friends
  • The satisfaction of knowing you are making a difference
