How can a senior citizen with strong administrative experience find meaningful volunteer or paid roles in Tamil Nadu?

I am a 75-year-old senior citizen in good health, with over 45 years of experience in general administration with various office skills. I hold a graduate degree and am also comfortable in five languages.

How can I find administrative positions in orphanages or other service-oriented organizations anywhere in Tamil Nadu?

What advice would you offer to someone like me who is eager to stay active and contribute meaningfully either on a volunteer or paid basis? Any guidance on how to connect with the right organizations or opportunities would be greatly appreciated.

Karen’s Answer

As a senior citizen, you have a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience to offer a variety of groups and/or individuals. Online searching may result in volunteer opportunities around the world if done virtually.

Consider also a variety of small, random acts of kindness, perhaps doing something for your family or neighbors. The gratification you receive by being generous with your time may be something you will never regret doing.

You also are a great example of what it means to lead a life that others can emulate.

With every good wish and many blessings,
Karen

Sandeep’s Answer

Even though you've reached the age when many people retire, some organizations might hesitate to hire you for an administrative role because of age and health concerns. However, there are still places that would welcome your experience. You can volunteer to mentor others in administrative roles, sharing your valuable guidance and knowledge with them.
