I accessed Portage County RSVP when in desperate need of some clerical support. They were very kind, courteous, and eager to assist with the needs presented. The volunteer that they matched me with was phenomenal. She was extremely knowledgeable and willing to help. I could not have met the deadlines and needs with out RSVP help. I would like to commend them in all that they do and thank the staff and volunteers for being so easily accessible and for being so professional and personable. Thank you.
