Volunteering

At AARP Maine, we believe that hard work shouldn’t go unnoticed. To celebrate the accomplishments of our volunteer advocates, we are proud to announce the 2024 Legislative Honor Roll!

Betty Gambino’s story began in the heart of New York City's vibrant Bronx borough where she lived until she moved to suburban Long Island to raise her four children. In 1997, Betty and her family relocated to Florida, where she worked for American Express. Upon her retirement, Betty found her true calling – a dedication to service and advocacy that would define her path for years to come.

April is National Volunteer Appreciation Month and we couldn't be more grateful to those using their time, expertise, and passion to enrich the lives of older adults in North Dakota.

Volunteer Month is a time to say thank you to our dedicated volunteers.
