DO YOU BELIEVE IN RECOGNIZING INCREDIBLE VOLUNTEERS FOR THEIR SERVICE?
If your answer to that question is yes, we've got JUST the opportunity for you!
Volunteers for Community Impact, Inc. is a non-profit organization based in Central Florida which aims to promote and support a spirit of community engagement and service amongst the older adult population. By actively recruiting and matching adults aged 55 and older, we make a meaningful impact on our local communities in the areas of health, food service, education, poverty alleviation / food service, job assistance, financial literacy, community gardens, rebuilding and construction.
Our AMAZING volunteers do so much for their local communities, and every year, our organization tries to acknowledge and laud the thousands of hours of service they provide to the networks they are a part of.
That's where we need YOU! We're setting up a luncheon to shower our volunteers with love and appreciation, but just this once, we'd like to spare them the work of organizing the event. If you can spare us some time for set-up and tear-down, we would love to provide you with a free meal and the entertainment of the event!
Here are some of the tasks we'll be needing help with:
- Setting up the sign-in area/vendor area
- Putting together and arranging centerpieces in the ball room
- Greeting our guests as they arrive and instructing them as to the correct place to go for sign-in
- Helping collect nametag holders and surveys from volunteers (at the end)
- Assisting with breakdown of items
REMEMBER--you'll get a FREE meal (worth $30!), and we can provide proof of volunteer hours. We will also cover the cost of a background check. For more information, and to sign up, please contact DELILAH MCKAY: 407-298-4180, x108 / drivera@vcifl.org.

Description
We are the leading organization for senior volunteerism in the greater Central Florida area, serving Orange, Osceola, Seminole and Volusia counties. Just last year, 1,186 caring adult volunteers gave 438,683 hours of service. That is more than $9.5 million dollars worth of volunteer service being poured back into our communities.
Previously known as Florida Senior Programs, VCI has been the sponsoring agency for the REtired & Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) and Foster Grandparent Programs since 1977. Our 36 year presence has proven our aptitude for providing meaningful and impactful volunteer experiences.
VCI provides membership benefits and support to volunteers aged 55+, at no cost to the volunteers or their volunteer stations. Just a few of the benefits of membership include: Supplemental insurance while volunteering, a dedicated coordinator, and matching to find the perfect position to fit the interest of the volunteer.
