The Lives We Change...
Derek – Employee Development Program
Goodwill helped Derek find a career path while he worked in our Sierra Vista Store. Our Goodwill Employee Development Program helped connect him to education and a certification. Today he is working at Central Arizona Block Company as a welder. Congrats Derek, you make us proud.
Nancey – Employee Development
Goodwill helped Nancey earn her GED and behavioral health certificate to help build her career and grow into a successful job coach for the adults with disabilities that work in our stores. Nancey works with staff to help them meet their own personal goals, while building a career path of her own.
