About RSVP

The Retired Senior Volunteer Program of Elkhart County (RSVP Elkhart) has been present in the community for over 30 years. Focused on serving the community and enriching the lives of our 55+ population, RSVP strives to aid our Baby Boomers and seniors in finding fulfillment and purpose through volunteer service.

Most recently under the umbrella of Catholic Charities, RSVP Elkhart has experienced tremendous growth. Our volunteer numbers have nearly doubled to include over 200 volunteers serving in 40 local non-profit and for profit health facilities throughout our region. In 2008, RSVP Elkhart volunteers served 25,578 hours doing activities that included working with the homeless, lobbying for children’s safety, counseling small and minority business owners, visiting patients in the hospital and nursing homes, serving food pantry clients, and much more. With the national value of an hour of volunteer labor being $18.75 this service is valued at $499,587.50.
