MOST OF OUR RSVP VOLUNTEERS WERE RESTRICTED BECAUSE OF AGE AND HEALTH REASONS, FROM WORKING THEIR NORMAL, ONE ON ONE VOLUNTEER ACTIVITIES. WE ARE STILL, SAFELY INSTITUTING WAYS TO BRING BACK ALL OF OUR ACTIVE RSVP VOLUNTEER STAFF BY PERFORMING SOCIALLY DISTANT ACTIVITIES SUCH AS MAKING PHONE CALLS, SENDING CARDS, SOCIALLY DISTANT MOBILE MEALS DELIVERY AND SOCIALLY DISTANT FOOD PANTRY WORK AMONGST OTHER DEVELOPING IDEAS.
