Marc Freedman is Founder and President of Civic Ventures, a think tank and an incubator that generates ideas and invents programs to help society achieve the greatest return on experience...experience that Boomers have in droves!

In the late 1990s Marc, along with social entrepreneur John Gardner, founded Civic Ventures. The organization is reframing the debate about aging in America and redefining the second half of life as a source of social and individual renewal. Through research, publishing, conferences, and media outreach, Civic Ventures reports on the growth of the experience movement.

Marc also led the effort to create Experience Corps, the nation's largest national service program engaging Americans 50 and above.

Listen to what Marc has to say about the impact Boomers can make through their volunteering efforts.
