MISSION

Goodwill Industries of the Inland Northwest
helps people build independence
through training, education, and employment.

FROM OUR PRESIDENT AND CEO

I hope you will find this Web site informative and will find ways to begin or expand your involvement with Goodwill Industries of the Inland Northwest.

One of the challenges in describing different aspects of our Goodwill is the complexity of our organization and our work.

Many people know Goodwill as shoppers seeking great “finds” or as donors who feel good about recycling reusable goods through Goodwill.

If you or someone you know has received services from Goodwill, you surely have some idea of the work that our dedicated staff performs on behalf of the more than 3100 people with disabilities and disadvantages we serve each year.

Did you know that there are solid business opportunities in partnership with Goodwill?

Please visit our sections on events, volunteering, and current news, too. We all work very hard---but we also like to create fun activities that are in keeping with our mission.

Thank you for visiting. I hope you’ll be back to see us soon and often!

With my best wishes,

Bobbi Johnson
President and CEO
