Green Mountain RSVP

We partner with over 75 different nonprofit organizations and currently have 379 volunteers placed on regular assignments. If you are interested in working with RSVP, please get in touch!

 

We place volunteers at stations that provide:​

• Meals on Wheels Deliver meals to homebound seniors & people with disabilities.

• Companionship programs for seniors include friendly visiting, telephone support, rides to medical appointments, and bill-paying assistance.

• Financial Literacy - Elder Justice/financial exploitation training presentations.

• AARP Tax Assistance programs that serve low-income community members.

Other locations include food pantries, senior meal sites, libraries and museums, K-12 mentoring, knitting and mask-making projects, community events, administrative support/mailings, and many more.
