Adults over 55 who want to be active and make a difference in their community are invited to find out about the Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP), sponsored by Catholic Community Services.

"There are hundreds of meaningful RSVP volunteer opportunities throughout the county," said John McAlpine, a program recruiter, "with something to suit all interests."

RSVP enrollees receive free supplemental liability, accident and automobile insurance coverage while performing their volunteer duties, along with an ongoing personal recognition program and the chance to meet new people and learn new skills.

RSVP helps volunteers 55 and over find fulfillment in their volunteer work. It matches a lifetime of skills and experience to the organization of the person's choice. RSVP is America's largest volunteer network for persons over 55 and the only agency where the collective contribution of the senior volunteer is recorded.
