A Message From
Linda M. Mendelsohn, Coordinator

The Senior Volunteer Service Corps (SVSC) was established at the University of Maryland, College Park in 1977. Its volunteers currently provide tutoring and staff assistance to many departments and offices.

Typically, we have about 80 active volunteers who work an average of 6-7 hours a week over the 28 weeks that comprised the Fall and Spring semesters. These dedicated volunteers cumulatively devote more than 15,000 hours in service to the University.

 


The benefit of SVSC volunteers to the University of Maryland is extremely important and the faculty and staff place high value on these volunteers.

We welcome inquiries from people of the community who wish to stay physically and mentally active in their retirement years. You will find a list of current vacancies in another part of this website and an application form which you can fill out online.

If you don't see a current opening that fits your particular background and experience, we invite you to return the form to us anyway so we can keep it on file for possible future use.

We also are happy to receive requests from all departments and offices of the University that have a need or opportunity for volunteers in their daily operations.
