Encompassing Independence National Historical Park, Edgar Allan Poe National Historic Site, Thaddeus Kosciuszko National Memorial, and Gloria Dei Church National Historic Site, the National Parks of Philadelphia's Volunteer-In-Parks (VIP) program invites community members to become stewards of our nation's history—where it all began! VIPs play a vital role in welcoming visitors, supporting educational programming, assisting with special events, and maintaining facilities and greenspaces.
