TOGETHER,

WE CAN MAKE A

DIFFERENCE.

Thanks to the support from our Goodwill family of retail stores, outlets, and Donation Xpress centers, our workforce development team was able to provide 16,944 life-changing services to our community in 2023.

“Our mission goes beyond retail, encompassing a broad spectrum of workforce development programs, housing services, and community resources that support the personal and professional growth of some of the most vulnerable members in our communities.

I take great pride in the collective efforts of our entire Goodwill family, working diligently to create a positive impact.”
