RSVP Says Volunteers are “Love in Motion”

As you know, The Retired and Senior Volunteer Program of Beaver County, RSVP assists locally with recruiting volunteers. For various reasons, sometimes volunteers can only help in their own towns to make a difference. Because of that, RSVP started “Volunteers Bloom in Your Neighborhood”, a community based project that we hope will blossom in all 15 river town boros! 

The qualifications are very simple: whether you have five minutes or five hours, there are countless ways to give back and all of our volunteers experience the deep satisfaction of making a difference in their own community

In New Brighton, Beaver County,  where the pilot for “Volunteers Bloom in Your Neighborhood” has had great success, volunteers have helped promote litter clean-up, assisted in beautification projects, helped with river clean-up, manned vendor tables at borough celebrations, helped set-up and clean-up at festivals, cooked hotdogs at the summertime picnic in the park, stuffed plastic Easter eggs for the Easter egg hunts and helped promote downtown flea markets. 

Any project promoting community involvement is welcome!  

RSVP is pleased to assist other community groups & nonprofit organizations in the recruitment of volunteers as well! Call us today to schedule a fun & informative workshop where you can get tips on how to energize your boro residents to become more involved! 

Calling all volunteers! If there is someone “planted” in your boro interested in blooming in the community, please call (724) 378-7547 and ask to speak with Valerie McElvy,

Master Gardener Volunteer Recruiter!

We love to hear volunteer stories!  Please leave us a comment and tell us about your experiences as a volunteer.
