Volunteer
Be a part of THE BEST TEAM around!
Program Overview
Volunteering at the Aviation History and Technology Center (AHTC) provides an opportunity to make a difference and support our mission. AHTC could not function without our volunteers’ commitment and enthusiasm that is vital to each visitor’s experience. Each year, volunteers donate thousands of hours to their community at AHTC, making it possible for us to offer a warm welcome and a memorable learning experience to our visitors from North Georgia and all over the world.
We have a variety of needs to fully serve our community, both with the public and behind the scenes so don't worry if you are not from an aviation background or are not available for large amounts of time. We want to work with you. We will find a role that is rewarding to you and helps both of us grow.
