Volunteering

Meet our volunteers and find opportunities to get involved with our outreach and community service programs.
Join us in making a difference in the lives of families and individuals transitioning out of homelessness and poverty! We're thrilled to be partnering with Bridging, a nonprofit organization that provides donated furniture and household goods to those in need. You'll have the opportunity to work alongside other community members and AARP volunteers to sort through donated goods, inspect linens, and restock shelves for client shopping.

The heart of AARP Minnesota's work revolves around our volunteers. We are grateful to our volunteers who bring to life AARP’s purpose to empower people to choose how they live as they age. AARP volunteers are skilled, dedicated and passionate about giving back to their communities and helping the 50-plus population live their best lives.
Sara Barsel has been awarded the 2023 AARP Andrus Award for Community Service for Minnesota. The annual award is AARP’s most prestigious and visible volunteer award. It recognizes individuals who are sharing their experience, talent and skills to enrich their communities in ways that are consistent with AARP’s purpose and vision. Their commitment to volunteer service embodies AARP's founder, Dr. Ethel Percy Andrus, belief in the power of ordinary people to do extraordinary things.
AARP’s founder Dr. Ethyl Percy Andrus once characterized AARP’s work on behalf of older Americans, “to serve, not to be served.”
