Volunteers

Volunteers are the lifeblood of a non-profit community organization like The Poppenhusen Institute. From the Verizon Pioneers, who do weekly repairs and maintenance on the building and grounds, to interns, who fulfilling high school and college credits, organize our archives and man our events, the institute has a variety of volunteer positions. These civic-minded people make the Institute what it is.

Do you think you’d like to volunteer?

If so, contact Susan Brustmann or Faye Graham at: (718 ) 358-0067.
