{{Kalispell FHC Announcement Additional volunteers are always needed and welcome. The first and foremost quality you will need to volunteer at the Sahuarita Family History Center is a desire to help other people to research their family history. You do not need any particular expertise in doing family history research; serving at the Family History Center is a great way to learn how. You also do not need to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Volunteers typically serve a 3-hour shift at least twice a month.
