Volunteers to the Foundation Staff

The SHSND Foundation is most grateful for the more than a dozen volunteers who provide valuable services for this organization on a daily and weekly basis. Volunteers process more than 50,000 pieces of direct mail a year, edit and mail family histories for the North Dakota Heritage Family partnership with regional funeral homes in North Dakota. Volunteers help with membership mailings and also do research for our capital campaign efforts. They also promote Foundation membersips at the Sensational Sundays programs at the Heritage Center. The SHSND Foundation could not function without the time and talents of our extraordinary volunteers.

To become a Foundation volunteer call Virginia Nelsen at 701-222-1966.
