Ohio History Service Corps members help local organizations put history to work in their community through historic site survey, collections digitization, and capacity building for local historical organizations.

Three years of service with an organization means you love what you’re doing and in honor of February and Valentine’s Day, ServeOhio asked Cyrus how his service puts his passion to work.
