Everyone has a story to tell and everyone has something valuable to share. The Oral History Project (OHP) is the only program in the world that collects and preserves stories from the members of the organizations we partner with. We’ve collected over a million stories so far, and our collection grows every day. The Oral History Project Podcast shares some of our favorite stories from our actual callers.
