According to a recent profile of older Americans by the Area Agency on Aging, seniors reaching 65 can expect an additional average life expectancy of 17.6 years. This breaks down to 15.8 years for males and 19 years for females. Most of these years will be spent in retirement.
Many seniors are filling some of this extra time with volunteering. If you have thought about getting involved but don’t know where to start, check out these volunteer opportunities:
