There are two types of projects you can volunteer for in a place of interest to bring people of African heritage to light. You can do most of these projects from anywhere with the exception of cleaning up or photographing a cemetery.

Historic document projects
These projects use FamilySearch Web Indexing technology that will check out images of historic documents and guide volunteers in what to data enter. Some projects are launched but may not have a project leader who can assist volunteers. You can learn more about leadership roles by going to Learn How to Lead a Project for Reclaiming Our African Roots.
