WHO:         Goodwill of Western Missouri & Eastern Kansas is a 501 (c) (3) nonprofit agency whose mission is to empower people with disadvantages and different abilities to earn and keep employment through individualized programs and services.  We know that a job is more than a paycheck – it’s a resounding victory for the individual, their family and our community. That’s why 90¢ of every dollar Goodwill spends goes into our mission locally. 

Goodwill is a leader in sustainability, annually diverting 15 million pounds of clothing, computers, paper,  metal and more from area landfills, maximizing the value to our community through resale and recycle. Learn more at www.mokangoodwill.org.
