History of Goodwill Industries and its mission

Goodwill Industries began in 1902 in Boston founded by Rev. Edgar J Helms who trained poor workers to mend used goods sold in training stores to fund services. The network grew to about 200 autonomous organizations aiming to help millions gain employment and economic advancement through education work and career development. The Aiken Career Campus exemplifies local efforts aligned with Helms vision to expand capacity and foster independence through services.
