Give 5 keeps retirees active

If you are retired and have five weeks to spare as a volunteer, check out the new Give 5 Program by Healthy Living OKC Wellness Center. The civic matchmaking program is free and connects a class of 25 retirees with participating nonprofits to learn about their missions and volunteer opportunities.

Isolation and being socially disconnected are the greatest threats to retirees and Give 5 helps provide an active retirement life. A “taste test” is available to experience a wide variety of volunteer opportunities to help find one’s passion.
