Looking for a fun and educational volunteer experience? The Osceola County Historical Society has several opportunities available at both the Osceola County Welcome Center and Museum and the Pioneer Village at Shingle Creek.

You could work in these areas:

Greeter: A friendly face to welcome visitors and engage in conversation about local history.

Special Events and Outreach: Assist with off site events.

Field Trip Attendant: Assist in the education of future generations.

Docent: Lead guided tours of the Pioneer Village (Mondays and special events).

Our program is specifically geared to encourage volunteerism among those aged 55 and over; however, adult Volunteers of all ages are welcome. RSVP, a part of AmeriCorps Seniors, is America's largest volunteer network for people 55 and over, and has partnered with the Osceola County Historical Society to recruit volunteers for this amazing program. With more than 300,000 volunteers tackling tough issues in communities nationwide, RSVP shows how you can apply the skills and wisdom you have acquired throughout your life to make a positive difference in the lives of others. RSVP is federally funded by the Corporation for National and Community Service. Our volunteer support services are 100% free!

About Volunteers for Community Impact

Location:

3545 Lake Breeze Dr., Orlando, FL 32808, US

Mission Statement

Our mission: "Improving Lives Through Volunteerism."

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.
