Grandfather. Retiree. Friend. Volunteer. 💙

No matter what season of life you're in, there's a role for you to play in your community. AmeriCorps Seniors RSVP volunteers give back, learn new skills, and build meaningful connections, all while making a real difference right here in the Central Valley.

Retirement doesn't mean slowing down, it can mean showing up in a whole new way.

Ready to join? Visit www.handsoncentralcal.org or call 559-237-3101 to learn more about becoming an RSVP volunteer.

Did you know your time is worth more than you think?

Volunteer time was recently valued at close to $35 an hour nationally, ranging from about $17 an hour in Puerto Rico to over $52 an hour in Washington, D.C.

Every hour counts, no matter where you serve! Whether you're sorting donations, mentoring a student, or handing out meals, you're making a real, measurable difference in your community.

🌟 RSVP Volunteer Spotlight🌟

Meet Stephanie, an AmeriCorps Seniors RSVP volunteer who gives her time at not one, but two sites: Food Para Todos and Arbor Gallery!

Stephanie's no stranger to caring for others. As an LVN nurse, she spent her career bringing comfort and healing to patients, before retiring and setting her sights on giving back to her community. Whether she's helping ensure neighbors have access to food or supporting the arts through Arbor Gallery, her heart for service hasn't slowed down one bit.

Two sites, one incredible volunteer. Thank you, Stephanie, for all you do!

One Day. Together. One Fresno.

On Saturday, August 1, from 8:00–10:00 a.m., our city comes together for Mayor Dyer's 6th Annual Citywide Community Clean Up Day.

For one morning, neighbors, families, businesses, nonprofits, schools, churches, and community organizations unite with one shared purpose: a cleaner, safer, more beautiful Fresno.

Choose your HUB:
📍 Downtown Fresno Partnership – Cultural Arts District
📍 Councilmember Brandon Vang – Southeast Fresno
📍 People's Church – West Fresno
📍 Beautify Fresno – Central Fresno

Or choose your own area and lead a cleanup in the neighborhood, park, trail, or public space that means the most to you.

For more information visit /www.beautifyfresno.org/ or call the HandsOn at 559-237-3101

Every volunteer makes a difference. Every neighborhood matters. Together, we're showing what's possible when an entire city comes together in service. 💙

This quote says it all. Every hour, every hand, every act of service adds up to something money can't buy.

With temperatures climbing across the Central Valley, it's important to look out for our older neighbors. Adults 65 and older face a greater risk from extreme heat.

A few simple reminders:
✅ Find somewhere air conditioned
✅ Drink plenty of fluids to stay hydrated
✅ Wear loose, lightweight, or light-colored clothing
✅ Avoid high-energy activities during midday heat and stay in the shade

If you know a senior in our community, check in on them this summer, a quick call or visit can make all the difference.

Did you know Harvest Time serves Merced County, helping provide food and support to neighbors in need?

Volunteers are the heart of this work, whether it's sorting donations, packing boxes, or getting food into the hands of families who need it most. Every hour given helps stretch resources further and brings the community closer together.

Want to be part of it? There's a spot for you at Harvest Time. Visit www.handsoncentralcal.org or call 559-237-3101 to learn how to get started!

Volunteering comes in all shapes and sizes, sometimes it even comes with wings!

Did you know that volunteers with the Butterfly Festival raise and release over 5,000 butterflies every May? This year's event welcomed over 8,000 visitors, all made possible by a team of volunteers behind the scenes.

Whatever your "wings" looks like, there's a place for you to volunteer. For more info, visit www.handsoncentralcal.org or call 559-237-3101.

Manager. Mom. Neighbor. Inspiration.

Behind every one of our AmeriCorps Seniors RSVP volunteers is a lifetime of wisdom, a heart full of generosity, and a whole lot of proof that age is just a number when it comes to making a difference.

They show up rain or shine, giving their time, their talents, and their love to a community that is so much better because of them.

To every one of our incredible RSVP volunteers: thank you for inspiring us daily. You are the heart of this work, and we are endlessly grateful for you.
