A LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CEO

Dear Friends,

Goodwill changes lives through education, training and employment. We believe in the power of work! Because of you, Goodwill provided services to 18,635 people and helped 7,598 Arkansans find employment during this last fiscal year.

The Excel Center® at Goodwill, Arkansas’s first tuition-free high school for adults age 19 and older, had its inaugural graduation in December 2018. Six Arkansans received diplomas. In June 2019, 18 more adults graduated. We will expand our school from 125 to 350 students by summer of 2020, and our long-term strategic plan is to have five schools statewide by 2027.
