Friends of Goodwill,

I offer to you my sincerest appreciation for your unwavering support of Goodwill’s commitment to changing lives through the power of work.

Looking back, 2010 stands out as a highly successful year helping people with disabilities or barriers find employment and become self-supporting and independent. Together we have faced the challenges of these economic times and have been able to meet the growing needs of our community. Thanks to you, we were able to steward our mission while increasing the revenues which will carry us into the future.

In 2010:

• Goodwill served more than 14,000 Central Texans in need of job help
• Invested in the community by laying the groundwork for the 120,000 square foot Goodwill Resource Center in southeast Austin, an area in need of our services. This includes an Outlet Store, Recycling Center, and Job Help Center.
• Helped nearly 1,400 at-risk youth stay in school, earn their GED, or find a job
• Provided more than 1,200 classes including financial literacy, GED, job skills, green jobs, assistive technology, leadership, and life skills
• Placed 1,602 individuals into community employment
• Recycled more than 24,000,000 pounds of material, which otherwise would have ended up in landfills

We are lucky to be a part of this community, and most of us wouldn’t choose to live anywhere else. Along with our success comes great responsibility. Central Texas is facing many issues and we want to be part of the solution. Building a powerful workforce creates economic energy and builds strong families and communities.

We are on a journey of excellence and we want you to join us. As we look to the future and the challenges and opportunities before us we aim to achieve more in order to serve the members of our community who are struggling. We will continue to build a stronger, more prepared workforce to meet the growing number of Central Texans in need.

Thank you again for your continued support. Together, we can make a difference!

Many thanks,

Gerald L. Davis, President & CEO
Goodwill Industries of Central Texas
