Volunteer with AARP Ohio

AARP Ohio volunteers are a diverse group of people who share the goal of working to make Ohio a great place to live for people of all ages. Whether you love meeting new people, working on projects that matter to your community or speaking up on issues that impact people 50 and older, AARP has a role for you.

We like to think of AARP as a wise friend that helps people live their best lives. As an AARP volunteer, that’s what you will be doing. Whether you can spare a few hours or commit long-term, you can make a difference—and new friends, too.

Sign up today and turn a lifetime of experience into the experience of a lifetime!

We have something for everyone:

• Join our Advocacy team, a group of AARP members actively engaged in AARP's efforts to influence leaders on the issues that matter most to the 50-plus population.
  
• Join the Speakers Bureau volunteers to educate and inform the public by presenting workshops on various topics, such as caregiving, brain health, downsizing, decluttering or fraud prevention.
  
• Join our Community Engagement team to connect members of their community with valuable AARP information and resources. These volunteers represent AARP at various community events and activities.

And don’t just take our word for it. Hear from our volunteers about what working with AARP means to them:
