Across our nation, every 27 seconds of every business day, a person served by Goodwill obtains a good job. Every five seconds, another American accesses Goodwill for opportunities to build careers and strong families.
Goodwill Industries has helped people go to work since 1902. We provide employment, job training, and other community-based programs for people with disabilities and other barriers to employment.
At Goodwill, we believe that work creates the economic energy that builds strong families and vibrant communities. Work builds self confidence, relationships, and independence. Everyone deserves a chance to have those things in life. Goodwill provides that chance.
