Retired and Senior Volunteer Program

As one of the Corporation for National Service Senior Corps programs, RSVP offers persons 55 and older the opportunity to use their life experience and skills to make a difference in their community. Whether working with children or adults, helping out in times of disaster, or providing much-needed support to non profit organizations, RSVP volunteers are making their communities stronger.

RSVP Volunteers choose how, where, and when they want to serve. In Escambia County, more than 45 community organizations utilize the skills and experience of RSVP Volunteers.
