About Goodwill
Since 1935, Goodwill’s mission is to create work opportunities
and skills development for people facing barriers to employment,
including persons with disabilities, youth at risk, the chronically
unemployed, Aboriginal people and newcomers to Canada. Our Community
Stores resell a wide variety of donated goods for reuse, the revenues
from which create jobs at Goodwill, giving people much-needed paid
jobs.
