Use Your Skills

Senior Scholars is run 100% by its volunteers.

Currently there are over 80 active volunteers that keep the machine running in the background. However, we are always in need of new volunteers to join the team.

The skill sets used are varied and wide. As a retiree (or semi-retired, or soon to be retired) we can certainly find a use for yours.
