Volunteer Opportunities
The St. Louis Genealogical Society is staffed entirely by volunteers. There are many opportunities available from active involvement to just a few times per year. Volunteering for StLGS also allows you to meet and network with others who share your “passion” for genealogy.
Want to volunteer but cannot make it to our office? The Society recently announced a new Volunteer Data Entry System which allows Society members to work on a computer from home.
If you would like to be a St. Louis Genealogical Society volunteer, please check the list of opportunities below and complete either an online Volunteer form or a Volunteer Interest Form to be returned to the address on the form.
Our Volunteer Coordinator will contact you shortly. For more information, please contact us at 314-647-8547 or send an e-mail to .
