Goodwill Industries
“Goodwill of the Great Plains is part of the international Goodwill movement founded in 1902 by Edgar J. Helms. As Goodwill was developed, Helms collected used household goods and clothing, then trained and hired impoverished individuals to mend and repair the used goods. Selling these goods through Goodwill stores provided the means to fund the mission of the organization to help people overcome barriers to employment. The system worked, and the Goodwill philosophy of “a hand up, not a hand out” was born.
Goodwill’s network of over 160 independent, community-based Goodwill’s offers customized training and services for individuals who want to find a job. Each local Goodwill must be accredited, apply for membership and meet certain criteria established by Goodwill Industries International (GII). Each Goodwill is an independent organization governed by a voluntary board of directors.”
