| The Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) assists individuals age 55 and older put their life skills and experiences to work for their communities. RSVP volunteers serve with community organizations anywhere from a few hours to 20 hours a week. Volunteers serve as reading tutors in the America Reads Program to ensure children K-3 read on grade level; serve as Senior Ambassadors at the Princeton Welcome Center, through the Task Force for Retirement Living, to welcome peer visitors, encouraging them to stay or come back to the area; assists with disaster readiness; serve in local hospitals; and make neighborhoods safe with Community Neighborhood Watch Programs. However they choose to serve, RSVP volunteers meet community needs and make a lasting difference! |
