AARP Kansas is excited to host a table at both the Wichita and Topeka Juneteenth celebrations on Saturday, June 21. Each event will feature music, food and educational activities. Visit our table and learn more about AARP priorities in Kansas.
AARP Kansas honors six individuals with a combined 60 years of service for their volunteerism, leadership, and advocacy. The organization presented the Annual Andrus Award and Kansas Volunteer Excellence Awards during a recent two-day volunteer recognition and training event.
AARP is now accepting nominations for its 2018 Kansas Andrus Award for Community Service, which honors 50+ Kansans who are sharing their experience, talent, and skills to enrich the lives of their community members. The award is named after AARP founder, Ethel Percy Andrus.
As the election season heats up, AARP staff and volunteers are keeping candidates informed about issues important to Kansans 50-plus. They are urging federal candidates to protect Medicare and Social Security. And they are asking candidates for state offices to strengthen long-term care services and to keep utilities affordable.
You're invited to bring up to three boxes of confidential documents to be shredded on site at the Wichita Dillons store parking lot at 135th and Maple on May 14 from 11 am to 2 pm.
