Are you interested in volunteering your time, energy and
talents to a worthy cause?
There are many opportunities to provide volunteer
services in Minnesota. The Minnesota
Board on Aging connects older adults with opportunities
to share their wealth of knowledge and experience. Working
with your local Area Agency on Aging, the MBA is committed to
building a volunteer-friendly environment in every community
throughout the state.
Did you know that seniors are becoming our nation's only
"growing" natural resource?
Over the past 100 years, a person's life expectancy has
grown to about age 75. This new generation of elders may be
the healthiest, well-informed, active group of people ever
in this age group.
In today's world, there is no limit to the variety and
forms of volunteer opportunities.
Make a difference today! Volunteer!
