Volunteers Needed for Spring 2021 Site Clean-Up Day
Volunteers Needed for SITE CLEAN-UP DAY
Saturday, APRIL 17, 9 AM-12 PM
On Saturday, April 17, 2021, the Alice Paul Institute at Paulsdale in Mt. Laurel will host a site clean-up day. The day is a part of spring maintenance for the site so grounds remain enjoyable for visitors during the spring and summer months. The 6.5 acres of land are home to Paulsdale, a National Historic Landmark and the childhood home of Alice Stokes Paul. Today, API honors Alice’s legacy by maintaining the site, offering heritage and girls’ leadership development, and advocating for the passage of the Equal Rights Amendment.
