Why ReServe?

• ReServe specializes in providing civically-minded institutions across New York City the opportunity to take advantage of a grossly underutilized resource: the skills provided by retired professionals. We review each organization that submits an application and match it with the right candidate to help that organization diversify its goals and become more effective.
  
  
• ReServe also gives organizations the chance to make a good match for themselves through our Opportunity Board. Once access is granted to our online database of retired professionals (ReServists), organizations can find the ideal candidate to match their needs.
  
  
• ReServe is unique in providing stipended part-time positions in the nonprofit and public sectors. Rather than serving on a volunteer basis, all positions require a commitment of $15 per hour on the part of the partner organization. Once expenses are taken out, ReServists are paid $10 per hour for their work. This policy arises out of the philosophy that a monetary agreement will both ensure the seriousness of the assignment as well as the quality of service provided.
  
  
• ReServe works with your organization to offer a variety of project-based and long-term opportunities that meet your needs. Your organization would work with the ReServist to develop a regular schedule that would accomodate both your needs.
  
  
• ReServe continues to work with you even after a ReServist is placed at your organization, checking in from time to time to make sure everything is going well.
  
  
• ReServists are placed on ReServe's payroll, so the only responsibility your organization has is approving a weekly timesheet online. Your organization will only be invoiced for the hours that your ReServist works.
