Description
RSVP of the Capital Region, Inc. (Retired and Senior Volunteer Program) is a volunteer-based organization funded by AmeriCorps, the federal agency for national service. We have been serving the Central PA region for almost 50 years. We recruit, train and place volunteers in not-for-profit agencies, schools, government offices, hospitals and senior residences. RSVP passionately promotes seniors as powerful contributors to our neighborhoods and community organizations that desperately need additional human resources.
Volunteers often tap their wealth of experience and wisdom and channel it in new directions. We have a wide variety of volunteer opportunities available. Volunteers mentor and tutor disadvantaged children, respond to natural disasters, deliver meals to seniors, transport seniors to appointments, offer free tax preparation, and more. We help volunteers give back to their communities based on their available time and interests. Volunteers choose how often they serve, where they serve and when they want to serve. There are opportunities for volunteers to serve from a few hours a week up to 40 hours per week. Make giving back your second act and join RSVP today!
