Volunteers at the Western Reserve Historical Society take History Personally.
Since 1867, Volunteers have contributed to the operations of the Western Reserve Historical Society. On average and in just one year, 500 volunteers contribute 15,000 hours of time, by sharing their stories, knowledge and skills. Here are a few of their stories.
