Volunteer Your Time And Skills

The Pennsylvania Trolley Museum is a nonprofit educational organization that depends largely on volunteers for its continued operation and success. Our volunteers serve in a wide range of roles from assisting in special events, restoring historic streetcars, keeping our grounds neat and safe, and more!

Planned Giving

Planned giving can be a powerful element of wealth management strategy or the estate planning process and can be arranged to benefit the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum while providing a life income source for spouses and other family members. Planned gifts are a popular method of giving because they can provide powerful tax benefits and sources of income.
