Retired senior volunteers donated 29,000 hours of volunteer service to residents of Garfield County last year. These amazing volunteers helped seniors with their Medicare, filed their taxes, provided minor home repairs, taught driver-safety classes, mentored youth, cared for abandoned pets, served senior meals, delivered Meals on Wheels and much, much more!

A huge “thank you” to these businesses and all retired senior volunteers — you are what makes Garfield County such a great place to live, volunteer and play!
