Volunteer with Goodwill Houston

We need volunteers like you to help Goodwill Houston change lives! Through our volunteer program, we offer fun, hands-on opportunities to get you involved and help us make a meaningful impact in the Greater Houston area.

This is not a job, this is an application to volunteer with Goodwill Houston. This is a non-paid service.

If you are interested in making a difference, Goodwill Houston is the place for you!

We welcome the following types of volunteers:

  • Community Service
  • Highschool & College Students

  • Faith-Based Organizations
  • Corporate companies

How to sign-up to volunteer:

Please note that for all school group ID groups, each student must have a valid student ID.
