The Retired Senior and Volunteer Program (RSVP) is one of the largest volunteer networks in the nation for people 55 and over. They use the skills and talents learned over the years, and also develop new ones, while serving in a variety of volunteer activities within our communities.

 

RSVP volunteers choose how, where and how often they want to serve, with commitments ranging from a few hours to 40 hours per week. Volunteers receive pre-service orientation, training from the organization where they will serve and supplemental insurance while on duty. RSVP volunteers do not receive monetary incentives, but sponsoring organizations may reimburse them for some costs incurred during service.

 

Please contact the RSVP Coordinator for your specific county to verify current volunteer opportunities.

This isn't a goodbye, it's an "I'll see you later" 💙As some of you may have already heard through the grapevine, I have accepted a position with CASA of Portage County. After having served in the nonprofit sector with Family & Community Services for nearly 20 years, I’ll be switching gears to give back in other ways. As hard as it’s going to be to walk away from our partnerships and our amazing volunteers, I am excited about the new opportunity to serve Portage County. I will miss each and every one of the amazing connections, our incredible volunteers and I am certain our paths will cross down the road. And in the interim, my Assistant Director (Sarah Capretta) will be managing this program from afar until my position is filled. Please send anyone that may want to join the AmeriCorps Seniors RSVP team to our website: www.fcsserves.org and look under the “join our team” tab for more information.Wishing you all the best and THANK YOU for your friendship, the support, and the opportunity to collaborate over the years.

This was a fun project! RSVP volunteers who didn’t want their picture taken 😅 helped complete “Busy Books from the Busy Bees”. These books are headed to Mercy Health - Tiffin’s ER for children who are receiving care or siblings and children of the patients, to help keep them busy while they wait for their loved one’s treatments. RSVP volunteer Ann came up with the idea. “You see them in restaurants and I thought why not at a doctor’s office too?” she said. So we made it happen! We love our volunteers’ big hearts! We can’t wait to see who they want to help next! Special thank you to Tiffin Community Foundation for providing a small grant for us to continue to help provide ways (just like this) to help make our community even better. 💙 ... See MoreSee Less
