The document discusses international volunteering opportunities through Community Service Volunteers (CSV). It describes how volunteering through CSV allows people of all ages to help others in their community and gain benefits. Specifically, it mentions how volunteering helps disabled people live independently, provides stability for at-risk families and children, and helps young people and older adults find purpose. The document encourages people over 50 to volunteer their skills, knowledge, and experience to support vulnerable community members through mentoring and other assistance programs.
