Mesa County RSVP's mission is to strengthen our community by engaging volunteers ages 55 and over. We are recruitment partners with almost 70 local organizations. We recruit and place volunteers in positions that match their skills and passions while also meeting important community needs. Additionally, we manage three RSVP Signature Projects to provide specific services to the community. The RSVP Handyman Project provides minor home repairs for low to moderate income people who are disabled or elderly. The RSVP Senior Scholar Project places tutors in schools and other educational programs in Mesa County to work with children K - 12. RSVP SHIP (Senior Health Insurance Assistance Project) helps individuals who are Medicare eligible understand and utilize their Medicare benefits.
