About this organization
Mission
The mission of Goodwill of North Georgia is to put people to work. We provide job training and employment services to people who are having trouble finding work because of physical, cognitive, and emotional disabilities; poverty; lack of work experience and marketable skills; substance abuse; ex-offender status and a variety of other reasons. We also serve people who want to start or grow their own business. Through our vast array of programs and services we were able to serve 52,485 of North Georgians last year. We sell donated clothing, books, furniture and household goods in more than 60 stores across North Georgia and the proceeds help fund our mission. Since 1925, your donations have been helping to change lives.
