Share Your Time, Talents, and Passion for Local History

Do you have an interest in volunteering? Are you a local history buff, interested in helping out with events, or working with archival or object collections, or love to garden? Consider volunteering with the Historical Society and go back in time while contributing time!

The Centre County Historical Society (CCHS) is a non-profit organization that relies heavily on the generous gifts of time and talents by volunteers.  There are many opportunities to get involved in CCHS and fulfill your individual interests.
