I agree with XO Kathy. Certs are not necessary to have a successful HR career, however joining an HR org is a good networking tool if you are looking to move to another company. Most of the HR orgs have monthly meetings with a speaker and social time and sometimes the speaker counts towards obtaining an HR cert. Your company might even be willing to pay the dues as part of your professional enhancement. (doesn't hurt to ask).
Most of the job postings that I see for a "generalist"- and from what you describe, you do a little of everything and would qualify as one, most potential employers would like a college degree (the area of study doesn't matter as much as long it is a BS or BA) and 2 years experience for a basic position. Obviously HR managers would need more experience.
