The Power Of Work

The founder of Goodwill knew the powerful role that work plays in the enhancing the quality of an individual's life. We at the Goodwill of the Springfield/Hartford Area share the belief that work plays a crucial role in the ability of any individual to achieve a desirable life outcome. We believe that work forms the cornerstone of people's relationship with one another and is a critical factor in preventing and minimizing social problems. We know that without the economic power and the dignity that work offers, an individual is diminished in many aspects of life. This knowledge and understanding has led us to develop an array of services aimed at helping all people find and keep work that supports them both financially and emotionally.

Work Is A Cornerstone Of Life

The Goodwill of the Springfield Hartford Area, in acknowledging that work is a cornerstone of life, has not lost sight of the fact that a foundation is made up of four cornerstones and they are: our home, our work, our relationships and the intangibles that feed our spirit. The services of this Goodwill are inclusive of all the cornerstones, and above all else, support each individual in the way that will best meet their needs.
