VOLUNTEER! Use your time, skills and talents to meet critical needs in your community.
LCSNW receives federal funding through AmeriCorps Seniors to operate our Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) in Pierce and Kitsap County. RSVP is one of the largest senior volunteer networks in the nation, and is open to anyone 55 and older who wants to use their time, talents, and wisdom to make a difference.
Join us and hundreds of volunteers in Pierce and Kitsap County to address critical community needs by volunteering with one or more of our approximately 50 nonprofit partners including: high-end thrift shops, congregate meal sites, food banks, meals on wheels, furniture banks, schools, museums, and hospitals. Volunteer administrative opportunities are also available.
Your volunteer hours contribute to a national service impact. As an RSVP member, you are part of a group of volunteers who collectively give thousands of hours each year to strengthen their communities across the country. Your experience and skills can make a difference! For more information call Nancy McFarland 253-722-5695 or email nmcfarland@lcsnw.org

Music & Memories
Music and Memories supports people living with dementia and their care partners to engage creatively and joyfully in musical activities. Participants will sing, play instruments and move to the music with a goal of improving quality of life and increasing social interaction. It will also give them a sense of empowerment, increasing their self-worth, confidence and identity.
Music and Memories sessions are now in person or virtual. FREE sessions are one hour per week, and pre-registration is required. Register here for all classes.
Meet our Music Instructor, Amy, in this short video! For more information contact us at dementiaservices@lcsnw.org.
Make Cards & Ornaments for Seniors
Looking for a creative and safe way to help our community?
The COVID pandemic has been challenging for each and every one of us. It has brought even more isolation to our seniors, making it more difficult to connect with them. Santa for Seniors is collecting homemade cards and holiday ornaments to give to our isolated seniors. Card and ornament kits are available. For more information, email Teri McKeown at tmckeown@lcsnw.org
