Do one thing!" Susan B. Anthony’s advised a fresh-faced volunteer. After fifty years of agitating Susan B. Anthony knew change did not come without action, that even small efforts made a difference, and that everyone had a role to play. The work of multitudes of volunteers doing "one thing" helped women get the right to vote!
How can you put your talents to use? Perhaps as a volunteer at the Susan B. Anthony Museum and House? Whether filing, working in the mueum shop, or sharing Susan B. Anthony’s inspiring story as a docent, there is a role for you to do good at the Susan B. Anthony Museum and House.
The National Susan B. Anthony Museum & House will host a training session for new volunteer candidates who are interested in serving as docents on Saturday, October 22, from 9:00am-11:30am.
