Did you know volunteering can protect the brain against cognitive decline as you age?
Volunteers are the backbone of our OLLI at DU Community and a wonderful way to get involved and make a difference. Our Volunteer Committee organizes, recruits, supports and recognizes our volunteers.
One goal of our Volunteer Committee is to develop a volunteer handbook to provide information about our different volunteer opportunities. We will also be coordinating volunteer fairs and workshops and developing a how-can-you-volunteer video.
Another goal is to increase the number of volunteers at each site. Our website provides a place to track volunteer interests and skills, so we can maintain a current database and utilize our volunteer community in the best possible ways.
Finally, we are adding a volunteer recognition program to reward our hard-working volunteers.
