3 Reasons Goodwill Gives Thanks This Year

One Thanksgiving tradition many families have is sharing what they’re grateful for around the table. While this year’s Thanksgiving celebrations will be different, we take comfort in knowing we can still express our gratitude! At Ohio Valley Goodwill, we know there’s so much to be thankful for, despite the challenges of 2020.

Here are some of the reasons we’re giving thanks this year:

For the Goodwill team

We always have immense gratitude for our employees, but especially now, we are so proud of their ability to adapt to the many changes 2020 has brought to all our lives. We thank all our staff for their commitment to keeping our retail stores and facilities as safe as possible for guests and fellow team members through extra sanitation, social distancing, and the wearing of face masks. We’re in this together!

For our community partners

Finally, we couldn’t provide the services we do if it was not for the continuous support and collaboration of our partners within the community. We also appreciate the local businesses which partner with Ohio Valley Goodwill’s Industrial Services Division for outsourcing services, including assembly and kitting, fulfillment, and packaging. Thank you for working with Goodwill to help your business grow and help us provide meaningful employment to individuals with disabilities!
