Volunteers at the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum play a critical role in our mission to cultivate a better understanding of the Presidency, American history, and important issues of public policy.

A Native Texas Park guide explains the Monarch butterfly migration through the Dallas area to visitors

 

From a Museum docent bringing history to life for visitors from all over the world or a Native Texas Park guide explaining Mrs. Laura Bush’s longstanding commitment to environmental conservation to an Education docent giving a presentation about the Founding Fathers to Camp43 students or an Archives volunteer digitizing a time-sensitive FOIA request, each volunteer makes a difference.

Requirements

Due to the sensitive nature of Presidential materials, volunteers must be at least 16 years old, a U.S. Citizen or holder of a permanent resident card/A1 Diplomatic Visa, successfully pass a background check, and sign a confidentiality agreement. Other requirements:

• Make 1 year commitment.
• Able to learn new skills.
• Work > 4.5 hours per week on non-paid basis unless serving as volunteer or docent substitute.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Suite programs a plus.
• For some duties, able to lift > 50 pounds. 
• For some duties, able to stand for long periods of time and climb ladders.
