AARP FOUNDATION

Description

Working with local groups, government and national organizations, and corporations, the Foundation creates and supports solutions that help older people meet life's essentials: food, housing, income and personal connection. Our volunteers serve in a wide variety of ways. In addition to tutoring in our acclaimed Experience Corps program and helping low- to moderate-income people file their taxes through our Tax-Aide program, trained volunteers place calls to older homeowners at risk of foreclosure, and students in our Mentor Up program help low-income older adults stay connected to their community by keeping them up to speed on technology and social media - and just by spending time with them.
