Senior Corps Program

Through our Senior Corps program, we connect today’s 55+ with the people who need them most.
We help our volunteers become mentors, coaches or companions to people in need, or contribute their job skills and expertise to community projects and organizations. Volunteers receive guidance and training so they can make a contribution that suit their talents, interests, and availability. You might see us in the kitchen or out in the community.

The contributions of skills, knowledge, and experience of our Senior Corp member volunteers make a real difference to individuals, nonprofits, and organizations community wide.
