Short company description:
OLLI at UNF is self-organized member volunteers working together to create and deliver educational, cultural and social opportunities for lifelong learners aged 50 and better.
How do you define success?
Overcoming OLLI’s reputation as the best kept secret in Jacksonville. Ensuring those aged 50 and better in Northeast Florida know about the life enhancing approaches to positive aging that OLLI offers. It is a place where people can keep current, grow personally, enjoy the simple pleasures of learning new things and expanding their personal networks.
What are your biggest goals in the next 12 Months for your business?
OLLI is making a strong recovery from the pandemic but we still have a way to go. We’re focused on growing our membership and enhancing ways for our members to engage in all OLLI offers. In particular, we are seeking volunteers to design and deliver interesting programs for our members.
