    Description

    Through AmeriCorps RSVP (Retired Senior Volunteer Program), a 55 and older volunteer program, you can help to make major differences in the lives of young adult individuals with disabilities. Bring some of your own knowledge and skillsets to this fantastic opportunity by teaching a class or holding a group that has to due with a specific skillset you have (ex: arborist, painter, instrumentalist, etc...) The opportunities at this placement are endless as you can help an individual by mentoring them, role playing job interviews, helping them to write a resume, being part of the buddy system on local day trips, being a chaperone at a dance, and so much more! This organization also packages coffee and bottles wine!

    This organization is based in Oswego but has opportunities in multiple cities.

    Mileage reimbursement is offered to eligible AmeriCorps RSVP volunteers.
