Volunteering

AARP Pennsylvania volunteer Kacey French has always had an interest in elder care. As an architect, she developed a passion for creating homes with aging in place and universal design as the focus and led to her volunteering with AARP about five years ago. It also coincided with the start of the York County Village Association, a village specifically for adults 50+, where she serves as co-founder and president.

Do you know a volunteer age 50+ who is making a significant difference in your community? Honor their dedication, commitment, and creativity with a nomination for the 2024 AARP Massachusetts Andrus Award for Community Service, AARP’s most prestigious and visible state volunteer award for community service

A Walk Audit is an activity in which participants observe and evaluate a location's walkability to identify and document whether and how pedestrians can safely travel along a street, navigate an intersection, get from Point A to B to C, and so on.

At the annual AARP Massachusetts volunteer conference, Sen. Markey shared his family caregiving story: his father, a retired milkman, cared for his mother after she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 1985. At the conference in Worcester, volunteers learned a variety of ways they can use their time and talents to help the Bay State's 50+ population.

Frank Soto was inspired to serve as interim executive council president for AARP Arizona to make a meaningful impact and contribution to the community.
