Who We Are
Goodwill Industries of the Southern Rivers Inc. (GoodwillSR) is one of 156 independent, community-based Goodwill nonprofits across the United States and Canada. Headquartered in Columbus, Ga. and governed by a board of directors consisting of local business and civic leaders, GoodwillSR serves 50 counties in west Georgia and east Alabama as one of the region’s top employers and by providing free career services including job coaching, training and skills classes, GED preparation and testing, along with many other services designed to connect individuals to work.
Goodwill is unlike other organizations because our primary goal is to provide individuals with the skills and job placement services they need to ensure advancement opportunities and sustainable careers for a lifetime.
These programs are all made possible through the donation of gently used clothing and household goods that are sold at Goodwill retail stores.
