Volunteer
As a nonprofit organization, Historic Oakland Foundation relies on a team of more than 200 volunteers every day to fulfill our mission to preserve, restore, enhance, and share Oakland Cemetery.
Volunteers lead tours, staff the Visitor Center, and work out on the grounds. Volunteers also lend a hand at special events, which serve as important fundraisers.
