Burkhart Cemetery is a fully volunteer‑run, nonprofit historic cemetery. Every hour donated helps preserve our grounds, honor our veterans, and protect the legacy of those laid to rest here.

Your time — whether once a month or during special projects — makes a meaningful difference.

Why Volunteers Matter

We are 100% volunteer and unpaid

Volunteers help maintain safe, respectful grounds

Your service supports preservation, history, and community connection

Using the Point App to Track Volunteer Time

Burkhart Cemetery uses the Point volunteer app to record and verify volunteer service hours. Point is a free, easy‑to‑use tool that allows volunteers to log their time, track completed tasks, and stay connected with community service opportunities.

Volunteers can use Point to:

Log time spent on cemetery cleanup or maintenance

Record Point Volunteer Service tasks

Track progress toward personal or community service goals

Receive updates about upcoming volunteer days

Verify hours for schools, clubs, or service organizations

Point does not provide monetary rewards or compensation. It is simply a way to recognize volunteer contributions and maintain accurate records for nonprofit reporting and community transparency.

To get started, download the Point App on your mobile device and search for Burkhart Cemetery under volunteer opportunities. Once connected, you can begin logging your service hours immediately.

Volunteer Positions

Burkhart Cemetery offers several volunteer roles for individuals, families, and community groups who want to help preserve and care for the cemetery. Volunteers may serve in one or more positions, and all service hours can be logged through the Point App for accurate tracking and recognition.
