Many Ways To ReServe

ReServe matches continuing professionals age 55+ with flexible opportunities that offer a stipend in exchange for your time, commitment, experience, and generosity of spirit. Once you have attended a First Impressions information session and your application is approved, you can search ReServe’s Opportunity Board for positions that match your skills and interests. Here are some of the ways to do great things:

Give Back, Fill the Gap: Use your professional experience and passion to help our partners stay on mission. Give Back, Fill the Gap opportunities require specific skill sets. Examples include: event coordinator, administrative specialist, development assistant, financial counselor, tech support, marketing consultant, human resource manager, social worker, and bookkeeper. Opportunities can be short-term or ongoing.

Impact Initiatives: ReServe works with community leaders and public institutions to identify big social problems where a group of ReServists with a variety of professional backgrounds can make a significant difference. ReServists receive training to do jobs that often involve working directly with clients. For example, ReServists help low-income students in high-need communities apply for college and financial aid. They mentor middle school students struggling with truancy issues. They coach seniors living with severe diabetes to better manage their conditions. These opportunities require a specific time commitment from the ReServist.

AmeriCorps Initiatives: ReServe has partnered with AmeriCorps, a civic engagement program of the Corporation for National and Community Service, to create more than 100 AmeriCorps ReServist direct-service opportunities in New York City and Miami, Florida. These opportunities offer ReServists the added benefits and responsibilities of being AmeriCorps members.
