Dear Friends,

As we look back on our 4th of July Dinner & Fireworks Spectacular, my heart is filled with gratitude. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our sponsors, donors, volunteers, community partners, and everyone who attended, the celebration was a tremendous success.

Events like this are about much more than an evening of great food and fireworks. They bring our communities together, strengthen friendships, and help ensure Nevada’s seniors continue receiving the services and support they deserve. Every ticket purchased, sponsorship provided, volunteer hour donated, and auction item contributed, helped host the fireworks show and allows us to continue our mission of serving older adults throughout rural Nevada.

To our sponsors—thank you for believing in our mission, investing in the communities we serve, and supporting a tremendous fireworks experience for all.

To our volunteers—you are the heart of Nevada Rural Counties RSVP. Your compassion, dedication, and willingness to serve make an immeasurable difference in the lives of thousands of seniors each year.

To everyone who joined us—we hope you had a wonderful evening celebrating our nation’s independence while helping seniors maintain theirs.

Together, we are building stronger communities, reducing isolation, and ensuring older Nevadans can continue living with dignity, purpose, and independence.

With sincere appreciation,

Molly Walt, M.A.Ed.
Chief Executive Officer

Sometimes the greatest gift you can give is simply being there.

Across Nevada, many seniors attend important medical appointments alone. We are looking for caring Volunteer Escorts to accompany older adults during doctor visits and occasional shopping trips. While our transportation team provides the ride, Volunteer Escorts provide reassurance, companionship, and an extra set of ears during appointments. Whether helping with check-in, taking notes, or simply offering a comforting presence, your time can make a world of difference.

Flexible scheduling, training, and ongoing support are provided. Just a few hours each month can help a senior remain independent and feel less alone.

If you are ready to make a meaningful impact in your community, we would love to welcome you to our volunteer family.
