A Long Legacy of Volunteerism
Lighthouse International was founded in 1905 by volunteers Winifred and Edith Holt who envisioned a brighter future for people without sight. Today, the Lighthouse is a leading non-profit organization dedicated to helping people of all ages overcome the challenges of vision loss. We now have a corps of more than 1,500 dedicated volunteers who are continuing the Holts' visionary legacy.

However you choose to help, we're here to support you along the way. And we provide training in some specialized service areas when needed. With offices in Manhattan, Westchester and the Mid-Hudson Valley, we have a location near you.
We appreciate your time and commitment, and will tailor opportunities to fit your schedule. We offer flexibility; you can volunteer during the day, evening or on Saturdays. And you can help on a regular basis or periodically. Select from a wide range of volunteer opportunities, including:
We also offer an array of internships - ranging from accounting to research - for high school, college and university students.
