About RSVP Volunteering
ELEVATE YOUR IMPACT WITH EXPERIENCED VOLUNTEERS
RSVP is a members-only initiative, in partnership with AmeriCorps, connects seasoned volunteers with organizations addressing critical issues like homelessness, food insecurity, educational readiness, and disaster response. Established in 1971, RSVP is one of the largest senior volunteer organizations making a significant impact on communities across the nation.
OneOC hosts RSVP Volunteers throughout Orange and San Bernardino Counties at nonprofit organizations to ensure that those most in need of education, food security, food delivery, and employment receive the help they need most.
RSVP volunteers choose where, and how often they want to serve, with commitments ranging from a few hours to 40 hours per week. Volunteers receive pre-service orientation, training from OneOC as well as the organization where they will serve.
