Volunteer Opportunities

The DeKalb History Center needs you to become a Volunteer!

 

Now is your chance to sign up for a shift to volunteer at the Decatur Holiday Candlelight Tour of Homes.  The DeKalb History Center is a grant recipient, and we needs volunteers on Friday December 2 and Saturday December 3.  We have slots available from 7:15 - 10:00 p.m. both nights.   Each volunteer will receive a ticket that you can use to tour the other homes on either night of the tour.  You are welcome to volunteer, and if you have a friend, spouse, significant other or anyone else who would be interested, they are welcome too!  Please contact us as soon as possible to help with this fun and festive fundraiser!  Email Melissa at director@dekalbhistory.org or call 404-373-1088, extension 22.

 

There are many volunteer opportunities that exist at the DeKalb History Center:

* Assisting the DHC office and archives with light clerical work and projects
* Helping visitors in the Archives and Historic Complex
* Assisting during special DHC events and programs
* Assisting with marketing surveys, etc.


We are currently seeking volunteers to help staff our exhibits during the week. Please contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Jim Overbeck, at volunteer@dekalbhistory.org or 404-373-1088, extension 0, for more information.

Our volunteers provide a great service to the Center and local community and we value their time and support. The commitment is minimal – only a few hours per month – but the rewards are great – preserving history, contributing to the community, and learning more about DeKalb History, Architecture, and Genealogy

 

Please contact DHC at 404-373-1088 or director@dekalbhistory.org for more information or to volunteer.
