Become a Volunteer!
Our volunteer program offers exceptional benefits and rewards for participants. Benefits include the free education you receive learning about the local history of the Valley; while the rewards come from making a difference in the lives of the public, local residents, and especially young students learning about the history of Temecula. We have several areas for volunteer services so look to see which best meets your interests.
​
No advanced knowledge or training required, just the desire to learn and willingness to share your knowledge.
