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.
