Help Save History!


Alexander and Baldwin Sugar Museum

HELP SAVE HISTORY! The non-profit Sugar Museum on Maui seeks a history friendly volunteer to assist with data entry of information into a Google Sheet or Microsoft Excel. Successful applicant will have a long attention span, good keyboarding skills, and an understanding of Google Sheets and Microsoft Excel. The ability to read old-timey cursive handwriting is a plus. Learn about Maui’s history while you help preserve it! (Must be physically on the island of Maui to participate in this opportunity).

The ideal candidate must have an email address, should have the ability to avoid errors while typing, and have patience, as data entry is not always the most exciting thing one can do with their free time.

How it works:

You will work at the Sugar Museum office on Maui. We will provide you with thorough instructions, a batch of cards, and a laptop computer for you to use while you are at the museum. You may also choose to bring your own laptop. No data will be stored in your personal computer. You will work from a link to Google Sheets accessed via your email address.

Tune out to your favorite audiobook or podcast, and get down to the business of preserving history! Do know that while it is not glamorous, what you are doing is critical to safeguarding Maui’s history.
