Volunteer

Join a diverse and energetic group of cemetery volunteers! We have many engaging, fun opportunities throughout the year where we guarantee that your time and talent will make a meaningful and lasting impact.

Why volunteer?

The Friends of Laurel Hill currently seek volunteers to assist with special events, archival research, administrative duties, and arboretum plantings.

  • It’s a great way to become involved with two of our area’s most unique sites.
  • It’s an excellent opportunity to work in a beautiful historic setting.
  • You’ll learn interesting stories and facts about our city’s pasts.
  • You’ll meet new people, including staff, peers, and visitors.
  • You’ll have the chance to make a difference for two important historic landmarks.
  • You’ll gather a lifetime of interesting dinner conversation.

Involvement in organizations such as the Friends of Laurel Hill is the type of participation that has historically helped to build our nation, proving that America is a land of dedicated and concerned citizens. The rewards of civic engagement are not just personally gratifying, but ultimately result in better schools, safer communities, more productive economies, and more responsive governments.
