Goodwill has volunteer opportunities for community members.
Retail Stores
Whether you’re volunteering alone or as part of a team, you will have the opportunity for hands-on involvement at any of our 10 retail outlets. Engage with customers, assist with sorting items and take on other various tasks for a fulfilling experience.
Amblyopia Screening Program
Our volunteers screen preschool children in Trumbull, Mahoning, and Columbiana counties for amblyopia, commonly known as “lazy eye.” Volunteers are trained by the Ohio Department of Health and use VIP Screening Kits to screen children in daycares and schools.
Radio Reading
Youngstown Radio Reading Service (YRRS) is a private, non-profit station broadcasting readings of local newspapers, magazines, best-selling books along with presenting talk shows and special interest programs to people experiencing visual impairment across Northeast Ohio and Western Pennsylvania.
If you have any questions about this process or volunteer opportunities, please contact Mike Muder at 330-759-7921, extension 1249, or m.muder@goodwillyoungstown.org.
