BECOME A VOLUNTEER

Are you looking for that special volunteer opportunity? A place where your experiences will enrich your life and provide a great deal of personal satisfaction? Then, the Loren Andrus Octagon House is for you! As a volunteer-based organization, The Friends of the Octagon House, rely solely on the generosity and dedication of their volunteers to accomplish the day-to-day operations of the facility. 

If you're a person that enjoys working with people, has dedication and is reliable, we'd love for you to join our wonderful group of volunteers. From daily tasks to special events, volunteers serve on a daily, weekly, monthly or as-needed basis. No matter what amount of time you have to give, we have a place for you! 

Volunteers are always needed. If you have a special talent or interest, perhaps you would like to share it with us. We always need people who are interested in helping with teas, decorating or baking. We also need gardeners, handymen, those wanting to give tours and others. Or if you'd just like to help out in some way but are unsure how, please contact us and let us know. With so many things to do at the Octagon House there are always opportunities for volunteers!

To insure your success, we will provide you with a basic orientation to acquaint you with the house, its history and any other information you'll need to have rewarding volunteer experiences at the Loren Andrus Octagon House. 

Our volunteers will receive two complimentary tickets to our festive Holiday Soiree that takes place each November. 

If you would like to become a volunteer please email us at volunteer@octagonhouse.org or call the Octagon House at 586-781-0084 and leave a message including your contact information.
