Retirement frees up time to pursue your interests, make new friends, and serve your community. U.S. News & World Report has identified 10 organizations for seniors to join to enrich their lives by meeting people with similar interests, finding volunteer opportunities, pursuing their hobbies, keeping physically fit, and accessing significant discounts.
Here are the top club-like groups to join:
- AARP
- American Birding Association
- Americorps Seniors
- Audubon Society
- Good Sam Club
- National Council on Aging
- National Seniors Games
- Red Hat Society
- SeniorNet
- Silver Sneakers
Those environmentally oriented will like the American Birding Association and Audubon Society. Physically fit seniors will enjoy the National Senior Games and Silver Sneakers.
Seniors can engage with Americorps Seniors and the National Council on Aging to find volunteer activities. SeniorNet is especially helpful for retirees looking to become more computer savvy, and the Good Sam Club opens up opportunities to explore new areas through recreational vehicles (RVs) and campgrounds.
AARP is renowned for its wide range of discounts and travel opportunities while the Red Hat Society offers women a great opportunity to socialize with other women.
You Deserve Better Benefits
Additional income helps you enjoy life more. That’s why here at Council of Seniors, we’re fully dedicated to getting Congress to pass The SAVE Benefits Act. Insufficient Social Security cost-of-living adjustments (COLAs) over a series of years makes this legislation a must to return a missing $581 to seniors.
Signing our petition is the best first step you can take to help. Congress needs this wake-up call to understand how many people support this bill.
