Where Volunteers Make a Difference

Programs

Providing Fascinating and Satisfying Experiences

The Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) offers hundreds of volunteer opportunities that are grouped in several program areas. The links below provide examples of some of them. But the true advantage of volunteering through RSVP is our personal volunteer matching service. When you contact us, one of our personal volunteer coordinators will meet with you to discuss your interests and help you choose the volunteer opportunity that best fits your skills, your schedule and your reasons for volunteering.
