The Vital Role of RSVP Volunteers
RSVP volunteers are a vital part of our community. By generously giving their time and talents, they make a meaningful difference in the lives of both children and older adults. Through their service, they help support a wide range of nonprofit organizations, including those in schools, healthcare settings, and senior centers. Many also assist older adults, enabling them to age in place with dignity and independence.
Volunteers have the flexibility to choose assignments that match their interests and comfort levels. Some opt for opportunities that offer more social interaction and teamwork, while others prefer independent activities such as knitting hats, scarves, mittens, and lap robes from the comfort of their own homes.
In addition to giving back, volunteers can develop new skills through their service—whether in crafts, counseling Medicare/Medicaid recipients, tutoring students, or leading community education programs in emergency preparedness.
You help older adults with chronic and acute medical conditions and frailties maintain their highest level of independence through companionship and respite.
