Volunteering provides a sense of meaning and purpose that is often greater than one experienced in a career! Many choose to volunteer, utilizing their talents and skills or pursuing areas of interest. Volunteering provides necessary intellectual and social stimulation as well as the feeling of great satisfaction that comes from sharing one's life experiences while helping others in the process. See the AARP (American Association of Retired Persons) article " The New Unretirement " for personal stories on how volunteering made a difference to others while bringing satisfaction and fulfillment to the retirees who volunteered their time and effort.

MN AGO Home Charities Office Classroom ... Utilities June 2002 Solicitations for Senior Benefits Information and Programs S enior citizens often face tough decisions about purchasing prescription drugs and other health related merchandise. Unfortunately, some companies are taking advantage of the complex choices facing elderly Minnesotans by selling useless or inaccurate information about the marketplace for health products or services. Consumers should be wary of solicitations asking for money for information about health insurance, prescription drugs, Medicare, Social Security or other "senior benefits." These solicitations sometimes advertise services that are of little use to Minnesota seniors, or they provide information on government grants and programs available free of charge through government agencies. The following are examples of such solicitations: One mailing to a Minnesota senior mentioned a nonexistent "new law" in Congress that supposedly allows seniors to order their prescriptions directly from Canada; A mailing to a northeastern Minnesota senior promoted the sale of an informational book that allegedly contains information to help senior citizens access free benefits and other financial assistance from the federal government;
