Goodwill is many things. We are a locally focused non-profit 501 c3 organization. We are a gently used goods retailer. We are a recycler, repurposing goods and keeping them out of our landfills. We are a solutions partner for employers. All of these definitions serve to support our most important role- as the leader in community workforce development.
