We just completed another project!! Through out the year Giles RSVP holds special projects to address the community needs within Giles County. Recently the Advisory Council members of Giles RSVP helped to complete the “Seniors helping Seniors” project that they started in January of 2010. Collaborating with RSVP Prince William, Virginia, Giles RSVP was able to reach out and assist isolated seniors who live in Giles 
County and are clients of the New River Valley Agency on Aging. Giles RSVP Advisory Council members at the March meeting sorted personal care products, socks, baskets and other donated items that was collected and received by the senior volunteers in Prince William. After the Giles Advisory Council sorted and assembled the gift baskets they were taken to the Giles Senior Center for the NRV Agency on Aging to distribute and deliver to senior shut-ins within Giles County who have been hit especially hard with the economic downturn. We had so much fun sorting the items and making each basket look extra nice for the senior who receives it.
