You can't(unless you are or know the person who placed the lock). Ask Goodwill to contact them or give you a refund.

Unless you’re looking for a an ornament, you should return it from whence it came. If it is Activation Locked, it is useless to you.
Here are the Apple support pages that outline the Activation Lock - and the only mechanisms by which it can be turned off:
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201365
https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201441
As you will discover, unless you are the owner of the AppleID that was last used to activate the device, or unless you can secure the cooperation of the previous owner, you’ll not be able to defeat or bypass the Activation Lock. Without documentary evidence that you are the original owner (such as sales receipt showing the serial number), Apple won’t assist - and nobody here will be able to help you.
You don't.
If you can, return it to Goodwill, explain to them what happen with thus iPad and see if you can get your money back!
Never buy used Apple mobile devices from thrift stores, flea markets, tag/lawn sales, auctions and the like.
Sorry & Best of Luck to You!
