What's Happening
Volunteer Center Orange County Turns 50!
In 2008 Volunteer Center Orange
County celebrates 50 years of service in the Orange County community. Our golden
anniversary celebration would not be possible without the generous support of our Title Sponsor, Fluor. Join us
in creating change by getting involved today!

May is Older Americans Month
As VCOC turns fifty (if we were an individual we would be part of
the Baby Boomer generation, and we could join AARP!), we continue to recognize,
celebrate and support the involvement of older adults in volunteer activities
across our community. We are proud to have a strong and vital Retired and Senior
Volunteer Program (RSVP) as an integral part of our work. To learn more about
volunteer opportunities specifically for those age 55+, and to read about their
accomplishments, visit the
RSVP page. Click
