Volunteering

People entering the Reuter Center for the first time often comment on the vibrant energy they encounter among the OLLI members they talk to. Classes, hikes, lectures, parties, shared interest groups, leadership programs, service projects and more contribute to that vibrant energy. Behind-the-scenes, OLLI volunteers are collaborating and creating offerings that appeal to a wide range of interests; many report that the more they are involved in volunteering, the more satisfied and connected they feel about their OLLI experience.

Active members are the creative lifeblood of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at UNC Asheville. They are involved in every aspect of OLLI operations and programming. An average of over 400 enthusiastic volunteers work with seven staff members to bring OLLI classes, lectures, events and programs to you. We are always looking for fresh ideas, talents and skills. Find out more about OLLI’s committees and contact information to find out more.

Want to help out every once in awhile, when you have an hour or two available? Become an event volunteer. Want to plan quarterly events with a minimum meeting-time commitment? Join the member engagement committee. Looking for a way to connect with members on an ongoing basis, using your talent and expertise to work on anything from OLLI finances to program development to strategic planning? OLLI has dozens of committees that match any area of interest.

For more information about using your skills and interests to make a difference email OLLI or call 828.251.6140.
