AARP Idaho

A voice and advocate working to protect and improve the lives of the 50 plus population in the Gem State.
To commemorate this milestone, AARP Idaho is inviting AARP members and invited guests to join us August 6 for an evening at Zoo Boise. You’ll receive admission to the zoo while enjoying complimentary ice cream, refreshments and shaded pavilions. Ride the carousel, feed the goats, we’ll even have face painting for the kids (or adults). It’s an entirely new way to enjoy the zoo and an evening the whole family will enjoy!

Much is being made in the Idaho legislature right now about the state’s fiscal surplus and the challenges we face righting our state economy as we exit the worst part of the pandemic.

The pandemic has all but exposed what we already knew about the lack of retirement savings of Idahoans across the state.
