Looking for a way to "PAY IT FORWARD" to your community? Consider becoming a volunteer at Highland House! We use volunteers as GREETERS, CLERKS in our Museum Shop (special training required), behind the scenes work, such as reframing photographs and documents, marking objects (part of our ongoing cataloging project), assisting with mailings such as our newsletter, and general cleaning and straightening. You might like to become an costumed interpreter in our Log Cabin or love gardening and would like to share in the work of keeping our beautiful grounds lovely. You can call the office at Highland House - 393-3392, or fill out the form on this site (click on "Volunteers" in the side panel for more information or to find the form).
Have you registered your KROGER PLUS CARD listing HCHS as your charity of choice? This costs you nothing, nor does it take any of your fuel points! BUT, Kroger will share part of their charitable giving with us! We currently have 6 folks helping us and our last check from Kroger was over $50.00. Please help and register your Kroger Plus Card Charitable Organization as HCHS! THANK-YOU!
