Retired and Senior Volunteer Program
Lead With Experience Join RSVP Today
You’ve gained a lifetime of experience. Now is the time to put your skills and talents to good use by volunteering through RSVP.
RSVP is America’s largest volunteer network for people age 55 and over. Join RSVP and you join nearly 500,000 volunteers across
the country who are tackling tough issues in their communities.
With RSVP, you choose how and where you want to serve. You choose the amount of time you want to give. And you choose whether
you want to draw on your skills or develop new ones.
In short, you find the opportunity that’s right for you.
When you volunteer, you’re not just helping others-you’re helping yourself. Volunteering leads to new discoveries and new friends.
Plus, studies show that volunteering helps you live longer and helps promote a positive outlook on life. In addition, with RSVP
you’ll receive pre-service orientation, training from the organization where you serve, and supplemental insurance while on duty.
The Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) has been sponsored by the City of Woodburn since 1973. RSVP is administered by the
Corporation for National and Community Service. Thousands of people have given their time over the years to make Woodburn a safe,
vibrant, full-service community. RSVP has a network of volunteers through out Marion County. Choose from over 50 work-sites
to serve
RSVP is a cost effective way to solve critical problems in education, public safety, human needs and the environment.
