What is it like to volunteer with Heritage Conservancy?

Every day and every project is different and unique, and they all make a difference in our community and for our environment. While you volunteer, keep in mind that your work is supporting Heritage Conservancy’s historic and natural preservation and mission and community programs.

How can I get started volunteering?

Take a look at our Volunteer Opportunities to learn about new and ongoing volunteer projects. You might also check our upcoming events for special workdays. Connect with Kaylyn Brindisi at volunteer@heritageconservancy.org or 215-345-7020 x157 to learn more about those and other opportunities.

Do you offer community service to fulfill an institutional obligation?

We offer volunteer opportunities to fulfill school or church obligations for community service. We cannot promise that we have opportunities that match your schedule and number of hours required, but we will try to provide chances for you to meet your community service requirements. If you have required community service, please contact volunteer@heritageconservancy.org.

How does my volunteer work relate to Heritage Conservancy’s overall mission of land and historic preservation?

Our organization was founded by volunteers, so without volunteers, we wouldn’t be here to preserve and protect the land and historic sites that make our region so beautiful! Each of our volunteer projects helps to further our mission in some way. For example, gardening at historic Aldie mansion helps to maintain the lovely grounds of the mansion which is frequented by many people in the community. Trash clean-ups and invasive species removal projects are essential to our property stewardship program.
