We are motivated to serve, because we care.
Volunteers do not necessarily have the time, but they do have a heart! Like all volunteers, VBREA volunteers are not paid…because they are priceless. Though our 9-5 p.m. clock has stopped, we stick together like an extended family. We are the VBREA!
Three important reasons to stay in touch with former co-workers:
1. Referrals. Some folks retire and decide it is not quite a good fit yet and they want to return to the work-force. Former co-workers, or a former boss, can be used as a reference.
2. Mentoring. As we break from the 9-5 schedules and find ourselves off-the-clock, Retirees have a special bond. Family is first, but most of your time was spent with co-workers during your career. They can help you during your transition.
3. The City of Virginia Beach’s retirement association. We are the VBREA. We serve because we care. Be part of us and maintain your connections with our community!
We care about you. Our members are encouraged to contact us (vbrea.webmaster@outlook.com) and let us know of any congratulatory instances, encouragement needed or condolences our members and/or their immediate family members are experiencing. We like to send out cards of encouragement to lend our best wishes of support.

The holidays are upon us. Take care of yourselves and remember, it’s the actions of the heart that gives more meaning to the reasons of the seasons.
Lifeline for a Lifetime,
Pete Leavitt, President
