The Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) is a great way to give something back to the community, make new friends and get involved in worthwhile nonprofit agencies. Better yet, RSVP volunteers receive supplemental accident and liability insurance, limited travel and meal allowances, and the priceless feeling of being needed. Here are a few of our most recent volunteer opportunities. If you'd like to volunteer, call us at (813) 272-5031.
