Volunteer with the Pauli Murray Center

The Pauli Murray Center is excited to collaborate with volunteers on a number of events and projects. While we do not have consistent or weekly opportunities, there are many events and activities where volunteers can lend their gifts and talents. See below for the opportunity that fits you best!


Individual Volunteer Opportunities

Individual volunteers are an essential part of big events and everyday offerings at the Pauli Murray Center! Volunteering with us is simple. There’s no monthly commitment or lengthy training to attend. Just sign up to be notified of opportunities and volunteer when you are able. Each opportunity shared will include information about what (if any) training or skills you might need, as well as accessibility information about how volunteers will be asked to assist. Please note that we are not in need of research volunteers or interns at this time.

Sign up for our Volunteer Newsletter to get notified about upcoming opportunities, training resources, and more ways you can support the Center.


Volunteers with Special Skills

Do you have a special skill that you think would benefit the Pauli Murray Center? Reach out to info@paulimurraycenter.org to share how you’d like to help. Examples of volunteers who are volunteering with specific skills include photographers, videographers, and proofreaders.


Group Volunteering

We are pleased to offer opportunities for groups of 12 or fewer people to assist with deep cleaning of Pauli Murray’s childhood home. As a small nonprofit, we do not hire cleaning services and our staff does all of the day to day cleaning. Every few months, we've been grateful to have folks come in and magic erase the baseboards, dust exhibits, deep clean floors, and more. Volunteer groups also receive a free semi-guided tour of Pauli Murray’s childhood home. Note that we cannot offer volunteer opportunities on Saturdays mornings because we are open to the public during that time.

Please reach out to info@paulimurraycenter.org to inquire about group volunteer opportunities.
