VisionCorps, a nonprofit with a goal of empowering people who are blind or vision impaired, is looking for volunteers.
“Since the pandemic, the number of people volunteering is declining, and we are looking for more people to help us,” said Dennis Steiner, president and CEO of VisionCorps.
“Our volunteers play an important role — they often help drive people who are blind or vision impaired to different destinations, and we depend on them.”
Steiner said volunteers are needed to drive employees and clients with low vision to different destinations in the five counties served by VisionCorps: Lancaster, Adams, Chester, Lebanon, and York.
The organization serves almost 2,000 individuals with rehabilitation services in those areas.
Volunteers can use their own vehicles or drive VisionCorps’ company cars. Assignments can range from short to longer appointments and could take place in an urban or rural setting.
They are given choices for their assignments and can choose to participate when it is convenient for them.
