From one volunteer at the Robert Yeager Health Center in 1973, RSVP has grown to more than 800 volunteers. These volunteers are actively assisting more than 140 non-profit organizations and county agencies in providing services to 100,000 or more Rockland residents. Last year RSVP members served nearly 140,000 hours. With a dollar value of $16.00 per hour for their work, according to Independent Sector a coalition that promotes philanthropy, they contributed over $2 million in service to Rockland County.
