HOW CAN YOU HELP?
- GIVS (Goodwill Industries Volunteer Services) Council offers a wide range of volunteer opportunities
- GIVS assists Goodwill through fundraising and hands-on support
- Your donations are processed for eventual resale in our retail stores
- Through these sales, your donations produce revenue to support our services for people with disabilities and other special needs.
- More than 84%of the revenue generated by the sale of your donations stays in Lubbock to provide individuals with barriers to employment the skills needed to compete successfully in the working world.
- As these people are empowered to work, they cease to be recipients of tax dollars (through welfare or disability income, for example) and become tax-paying members of community workforce.
- The business community, in turn, receives a steady stream of motivated workers, trained in fields where job openings exist.
