Adam's Story
Adam Pendlay began working at the Goodwill Store in Leavenworth, Kansas in 2004 when it first opened, starting out as a clothes hanger, promoted to a processor and now most recently elevated to a receiving associate position. His current position involves accepting the material donations from individuals at the drop off area and sending it on to be processed. Adam’s hard work and commitment to his job is one of the reasons he has been promoted at Goodwill.
But he is more than just a hard working and dedicated employee. He exemplifies the values of Goodwill through his job. Adam always has a smile on his face that brightens a room. His positive attitude, willingness to work hard and his honesty are examples that he sets for others to strive towards.
”Adam is the go-to guy and he is always anxious to learn new things” states Karen Dawe, Leavenworth Goodwill’s general manager. “and Adam will tell you that he has learned a lot during his employment at the Goodwill, including customer service skills, pricing, lifting and other store jobs.
His efforts extend beyond just his job responsibilities. Annually,
during the holidays, Adam volunteers to be Santa Claus for the customers that come in to Goodwill to shop. “Our customers look forward to seeing Adam as Santa each year and it has become a wonderful tradition at our Store. “He’s a big guy with a bigger heart and is a joy to be around.” says Dawe.
