Every year AARP Oregon recognizes an outstanding volunteer in our state with The Andrus Award. The Andrus Award for Community Service honors volunteers who spark change and improve their communities one act at a time. The award honors the spirit of AARP's founder, Ethel Percy Andrus, who started AARP when she found a retired educator in need.
At our Portland Mayoral Forum, we started the program by hearing from our members. Take a minute and find out what we learned! For example, 97% of AARP members voted in the last election. But we also asked about older workers, transportation, housing and more.
