The Heritage of Goodwill®

Goodwill® Industries International was founded in 1902 in the South End of Boston, MA, by Dr. Edgar J. Helms, a Methodist minister and early social innovator. Helms collected used household goods and clothing in wealthy areas of the city, then hired and trained people who were poor to repair the items. The goods were resold in thrift stores, and employee wages were paid from the revenues generated.

60s_truckGoodwill®’s global presence extends to five continents, with over 160 full member organizations in 15 countries. In addition, there are 14 affiliate members in 13 countries. Through its services, Goodwill®’s network helps people overcome barriers to employment and become independent, tax-paying members of their communities. Today, Goodwill® of Southern Arizona continues this dynamic social enterprise by operating a growing donated goods retail business that supports direct services for thousands of people each year. This model produces positive social and environmental outcomes for communities across Southern Arizona.
