More to Give: Tapping the Talents of the Baby Boomer, Silent and Greatest Generations
This AARP study indicates that almost half of "Experienced Americans," ages 44-79, have increased or will increase the amount of time they spend volunteering, and most expressed interest in volunteering through faith-based or religious groups, by mentoring or tutoring young people, and by helping older adults live independently. Key barriers to civic engagement include: overly rigid volunteer schedules, lack of time, lack of invitation, and the need to make money.
