Goodwill Southeast Georgia Revenue and Competitors

OUR M I SS ION We assist people with disabilities and other barriers to employment to live independently and become employed. WHO WE AR E At Goodwill, we believe that every individual can reach their potential and fully contribute to a vibrant and diverse society. As an independent social enterprise, we address the unique needs of Southeast Georgia and are positioned as a leader in workforce development. Our local staff and volunteer board of directors help guide and develop programming, which builds a stronger community and benefits all individuals living in our region. Everyone knows the Goodwill retail stores, but we are so much more. We are a nonprofit, a manufacturer, a business solutions provider and even a recycler, diverting more than 16million pounds from landfills last year. These operations drive our services and produce revenue that is re-invested into our mission.

These operations build revenue and create jobs by contracting with local businesses and government departments to provide a wide range of commercial services. We employ over 800 associates throughout our region and placed an additional 1,600 individuals into employment in 2017. WHAT WE DO Our mission is delivered through customized programs and services that meet the needs of the community and bridge the gap be-tween job seekers and employers.

In 2017, we placed 1,141 individuals into employment, helping them gain a better quality of life and strengthen their families. We served 6,241 people through our Job Connection Centers and provided more than 40,000 services throughout our region.
