Dear Friend,
Americans are living longer than ever and achieving even
more. As they enter their second act, they’re choosing to take on new roles
after decades of hard work to ensure greater opportunities for the generations
that follow. Senior Corps provides an opportunity to harness the experience and
dedication of an entire generation for the greater good.
For decades, Senior Corps volunteers have made a
commitment to country and community through volunteer service, using a lifetime
of skills and experiences. Today, more than 245,000 volunteers age 55+ are
serving through Senior Corps’ programs – Foster Grandparents, Senior
Companions, and RSVP.
Senior Corps service strengthens communities, and helps its
volunteers lead active, healthy lives. Today, we can start to see just how healthy.
Visit SeniorCorps.gov/HealthyVolunteers to see the
specific data points and register for a webinar happening on July 26. You will also
be able to learn more about the impact of Senior Corps or find a volunteer
opportunity in your community.
In Service,
Senior Corps
