Making merry at the General's annual birthday celebrationVolunteer Opportunites

Volunteers of The General Henry Knox Museum are a dynamic and exciting group who share many diverse interests such as history, gardening and antiques. There are many opportunities for Volunteers.

Montpelier/The General Henry Knox Museum salutes, recognizes and celebrates our volunteers as well as volunteers at the local, state and national levels. We encourage anyone interested in learning about volunteering to contact the Museum.

America has a proud tradition of neighbor helping neighbor, and today this volunteer spirit is needed more than ever before. Consider these reasons for volunteering your services:

  • Studies show that people who volunteer live longer, healthier and happier lives.

  • It provides a way to be useful, help others, and do good deeds.

  • The work is enjoyable and makes one feel needed.

  • Volunteerism is good for the heart. It increases your self-esteem and competence
    as well as lessens stress.

  • Retirement can be a time to give back.

As Winston Churchill said, "You make a living by what you get. You make a life by what you give."
