About Give 5
Give 5 is on a mission to provide retirees with meaningful volunteer opportunities that foster a sense of purpose and community impact. By connecting passion with purpose, Give 5 turns experience into lasting community impact—because when retirees give their time and talent, communities thrive.

The notion of citizens wanting to do something for their community is a precious thing and Give 5 is a fantastic vehicle for capturing that notion, nurturing it and connecting it with the nonprofits in that community.

Give 5 is a smart way to connect aging Boomers with non-profit volunteering opportunities. It’s a brilliant strategy to solve two growing social problems simultaneously—the dangerous isolation of older Americans and the dangerous isolation of younger have-not Americans.

Chief Human Resource Officer, SeniorAge
The Give 5 program has proven an excellent source for volunteers in our agency. We have found volunteers who come from Give 5 to serve with exceptional wisdom and skill, with gracious hearts, and with passionate spirits.
