Recognizing the energy and strength that volunteers give to its efforts, AARP Georgia is stepping up to help those who help their communities.
AARP Driver Safety (ADS) is seeking a highly qualified person to serve as the next State Coordinator for Georgia. This is an unpaid volunteer position. Any ADS volunteer or individual outside of the program is welcomed to apply.
AARP Foundation is looking to expand its team of volunteers for the upcoming tax season by recruiting interested individuals. Tax-Aide is an AARP Foundation program that offers free tax filing help for those who need it most, especially adults 50 and older, during the tax season.
Recently, AARP Georgia hosted a Financial Forum featuring several elected officials, with over 200 people in attendance. The event kicked off with State Senator Charlie Bethel discussing the importance of financial security and saving for retirement and his related work at the state level. This was followed by an overview of AARP’s Take A Stand campaign, offered by June Lyle, AARP Regional Vice President. Finally, U.S. Senator Johnny Isakson and U.S. Representative Tom Price then talked in-depth about challenges to Social Security and proposals for solvency. Several AARP Georgia volunteers supported the event by working at the registration table, serving as event/hosts, and coordinating comment cards. This event served to highlight the need for action to ensure that Social Security remains strong for future generations. Nearly 4.8 million Georgians are working hard and paying into Social Security. If our nation's leaders don't act, future retirees could lose up to $10,000 a year. The event provided attendees an opportunity to hear from our elected leaders about their commitment to update this important program.
