Goodwill Manasota Recognizes Outstanding Volunteers

The Giving Coast

Goodwill Manasota recently recognized four fabulous volunteers who were especially helpful as the nonprofit organization worked through the challenges of the pandemic last year. Goodwill honored: Louise Cataldo: a retired math teacher who volunteers with Goodwill’s Job Connection customers, helping them to create and update their resumes; Jim Flora: a retired corporate executive who volunteers with the Job Connection and Veterans Services programs doing mock interviews, to help participants during the job search; Andrea Nierenberg: an e-commerce business developer and executive coach who donates her time, style, and fashion sense to help create videos showing how to shop Goodwill stores for different looks, for the holidays, and more; and Jo Rita Stevens: a retired Realtor who is the longest-serving volunteer – over 50 years – in Goodwill history.
