At AARP New York, volunteers are the driving force behind everything we do. Each month in 2025, we’re shining a spotlight on the incredible individuals who give their time, energy, and passion to make a difference in the lives of older New Yorkers. From advocating for important issues to lending a helping hand in local communities, these volunteers embody the spirit of service and inspire us all. Join us as we celebrate their stories and the impact they create across the state.
