Tiffany Excels in Her New Goodwill Career

Tiffany overcomes addiction and thrives in her career at Goodwill as the retail store manager at our Hastings, NE location. Tiffany says that she has been able to build relationships with teammates at Goodwill and now has a lot of resources and people she can call and depend on. "It's hard to recover if there is nobody there to help support...because I can't do it alone."

2023 Community Impact Report Now Available Online

Goodwill Industries of Greater Nebraska has released our 2023 Community Impact Report. In the report you can read about the impact of our services on the individuals we serve in our 55-county central and western Nebraska service area. We share the inspiring stories of individuals that have flourished and reached their goals while participating in our Behavioral Health, Employment & Career, and Developmental Disability services. These deeply personal stories reflect the impact that Goodwill has made in their lives and demonstrate the value of how giving a "hand up" to those dealing with intellectual disabilities or other barriers such as traumatic brain injury, substance use disorders, mental health conditions, homelessness, and other barriers can help both individuals and communities alike to grow and thrive.

Also included is information concerning our efforts in recycling and sustainability of the generous donations we receive for resell at our ten retail stores, relationships and partnerships in the communities we serve, recognition of our volunteer board members, Goodwill teammates, monetary donors, and service accomplishments. A financial summary is included as well.
