This is the best place I have ever volunteered. I have never felt so welcomed, included, and appreciated. There is such a warm, educated, passionate community here. I have learned so much as a result of volunteering here, too. They are very organized and well-led and do a great job communicating with and training volunteers. They also make a real effort to dig into the history and even critically analyze original texts to better understand Susan B. Anthony and her contemporaries. I highly recommend volunteering here!
