Goodwill Industries of Central Oklahoma is a community-based, nonprofit agency in Central Oklahoma serving central Oklahoma as well as Ada and Ardmore.

Goodwill History:

Goodwill was founded in 1902 in Boston by Rev. Edgar J. Helms, a Methodist minister and early social innovator. Helms collected used household goods and clothing in wealthier areas of the city, then trained and hired those who were poor to mend and repair the used goods. The goods were then resold or were given to the people who repaired them. The system worked, and the Goodwill philosophy of “a hand up, not a hand out” was born.

Dr. Helms’ vision set an early course for what today has become more than a $5 billion nonprofit organization. Helms described Goodwill Industries as an “industrial program as well as a social service enterprise…a provider of employment, training and rehabilitation for people of limited employability, and a source of temporary assistance for individuals whose resources were depleted.”

Every day we are advancing our mission of helping people overcome challenges to employment. This is accomplished through the operation of retail stores, contract services and offering a variety of programs and training classes designed to make individuals more career-ready.

Goodwill Mission

Goodwill is Empowering Individuals
Goodwill’s mission is clear. We help people overcome challenges to employment. The revenue from your donations goes back into the central Oklahoma community by providing jobs and resources to transform lives through the power of work.

As a second-chance employer, a majority of our workforce has a criminal background. Through our partnership with the Department of Corrections, we can provide jobs to non-violent offenders who are transitioning out of incarceration.

We also employ individuals with disabilities. In fact, 75% of our janitorial staff has a disability.

In 2020, our Job Connection Center provided 4,054 Job seeker services. We reached more than 12,000 people worldwide through our virtual job training services. When we say we help people get back on their feet, we mean it.
