President's Message

You did it again! Thanks to your support, Goodwill had another fantastic year across all areas of the organization. In addition to significant growth in our Retail, eCommerce and Commercial Services divisions, we employed nearly 4,500 Hoosiers in 2022 — 60% of whom have barriers to employment, like a disability, criminal history or lack of a high school diploma.

We served nearly 7,000 students enrolled at our high schools last year. We also expanded Goodwill Nurse-Family Partnership®, our maternal health program, doubling the number of Indiana counties we serve. In fact, we serve more than 10,000 individuals every single day through our retail operations and mission and education programs.

None of this impact would be possible without your support.

We recently celebrated the first anniversary of our 2022-24 One Goodwill Strategic Plan, which was designed to forge a future that supports equitable outcomes, provides lasting impact and allows Goodwill to serve even more Hoosiers. Read on to learn more about the significant strides that have been made over the past year. There are also some significant initiatives currently underway, including a substantial contract with Crane Naval Base that will employ 25 individuals — 75% of whom are persons with disabilities. Additional jobs will be created for Hoosiers with barriers through the opening of two new retail locations, growth within the Senior Community Service Employment Program for individuals age 55 and over, and reaching full employment at our new manufacturing facility, which serves the northeast side of Indianapolis.

Thanks for all you do. Together, we’re changing lives. Let’s keep the good going!

Gratefully,

Kent A. Kramer President and CEO Goodwill of Central & Southern Indiana

I hope you’re proud of the personal stories in this Annual Report because they illustrate the impact that your support of Goodwill is having on your neighbors and the people in our community.

Kris Busse y

2023 EMPLOYMENT ACHIEVEMENT AWARD

OVERCOMING ADVERSI TY

Kris Bussey was only 10 years old when she was first introduced to painkillers on the school bus.

“I was raised in a broken home, so the idea that drugs could solve my problems appealed to me,” Kris admits.

She struggled with long-term drug use which eventually led to a six-year incarceration. In 2019, she was released from the Indiana Department of Correction into a work release center for highrisk parolees.

“The only property I owned was the outfit the prison provided me upon release — velcro shoes, black slacks and a white button-up shirt. I hoped it would allow me to get a job,” Kris said.

However, she was denied work by 17 different employers due to her criminal history. Lacking any support system, she was feeling hopeless — until she connected with Goodwill.

“Initially, I was not a star employee,” Kris said. “I was going to be late to my interview but couldn’t call to let the manager know because I didn’t have access to a phone. I also needed flexibility with my schedule when parole called me in for a random drug screen.”

Despite these challenges, the managers at Goodwill saw potential in Kris and offered her a part-time position, which she quickly turned into multiple promotions. She was also selected for Goodwill’s 2023 Employment Achievement Award.

“After six years of incarceration, I suffered from what is called institutionalization,” Kris said. “I felt like an outcast, but over time, I learned that Goodwill was the only place where I fit in.”

In less than three years, Kris was promoted to site leader of her own Goodwill store, where she has taken an active role in hiring individuals seeking second chance employment and shares her own story as proof that they, too, can overcome their challenges.

“My goal right now is to continue serving people, delivering results and doing the work needed to achieve that,” Kris said.

“I felt like an outcast, but over time, I learned that Goodwill was the only place where I fit in.”

Sarah Schwartz

2023 BARBARA ROBINSON MEMORIAL AWARD

DEFINING

SUCCESS

Sarah Schwartz graduated from Indiana University Southeast in 2014 with a bachelor’s degree in education and a concentration in math. There weren’t many positions available for math teachers near her home in southern Indiana, so she continued to work part-time in the IU Southeast math lab. She also got a second job at a Goodwill retail store to earn extra income.

Shortly after, she was diagnosed with muscular dystrophy (MD), a disease that causes progressive weakness and degeneration of the skeletal muscles, making it difficult to do things like walking, climbing stairs and sitting and standing. However, Sarah didn’t let her disability stop her from pursuing her passion.

“When I learned that Goodwill was opening an Excel Center in Clarksville, I told one of my co-workers that I was going to be one of the math teachers,” Sarah said. “Not only am I now one of the math teachers, but I also ended up being the first teacher hired at the school.”

The Excel Center is a tuition-free high school for adults that helps students remove barriers

to completing their diploma. Ms. Sarah, as her students call her, has had a huge impact on those around her.

“I struggled with math growing up, but Ms. Sarah helped me understand things in a clear way, which helped me build confidence and the belief that I can learn,” said Ashley Neal, one of Sarah’s students at The Excel Center.

Sarah’s position at The Excel

In addition, she is currently working to complete her master’s degree in math education to help with The Excel Center’s dual credit program.

“Muscular dystrophy doesn’t define me and won’t keep me from doing the things I want to do,” Sarah said.

Center has provided her with a means to serve by doing what she loves and also allows her to live independently .

Nurturing a New Beginning

In 2020, five years after experiencing the justice system, Phlica Ford found an employment opportunity at Goodwill Commercial Services. She worked her way up from a temporary employee to a full-time associate and then a line lead.

Phlica’s career success was hard-earned. Due to her experiences with the justice system, she struggled to secure and keep a job, but she was diligent and persistent, taking full advantage of the opportunities she had at Goodwill to improve her employment and well-being.

Phlica also participated in Goodwill New Beginnings, a program designed to help Hoosiers reenter their communities after being involved in the justice system. It offers resources and support to help individuals secure housing and health care, reinstate their driver’s license and address legal challenges.

She received supplemental support from the program, helping her advance in her role and break down barriers involving the justice system. With help from Goodwill New Beginnings, Indiana University McKinney Law School, and Professor Lahny Silva, Phlica started the process of getting her license reinstated.

She is currently working with a Goodwill mission coach to clear her record through the Legal Expungement Advice Program (LEAP), designed to assist participants in filing for expungement. She’s also honed her soft skills such as problem-solving and communication by working with her mission coach. She continues to grow and learn each day, appreciative and proud of how far she has come.

“I’m very grateful for the opportunities Goodwill has given me,” Phlica said.

BYRON PILLOW

LIFE - CHANGING OPPORTUNITIES

Students who left high school can pick up where they left off at The Excel Center and earn an Indiana Core 40 diploma. The Excel Center offers flexible scheduling and a fast-paced, rigorous curriculum that has helped thousands of adults graduate with a state-recognized diploma, including Byron Pillow, Jr.

“When you have learning disabilities, you are often pushed to the side or to the back of the class,” Byron explained.

At the age of 17, Byron dropped out of school to focus on work, but after seeing his sister and mother earn their bachelor's degrees, he was motivated to complete his own education.

“At first I was only focused on getting my diploma as quickly as possible to make my mom smile,” Byron said. “But soon, I realized, I was also doing this for me.”

He decided to earn two industryrecognized certifications while enrolled at The Excel Center one in Core Construction & Research and a Commercial Drivers License (CDL). In December 2022, he walked across the graduation stage, making not only his mom and sister proud but also himself.

“The Goodwill Excel Center has opened a million and one doors for me,” Byron said.

Using his CDL, he recently accepted a new job as part of a large company’s fleet service and

finally has a career that does not require him to work multiple jobs simultaneously. He makes a higher wage now than he ever has before.

“The Excel Center has changed my life,” Byron said.

Designed to meet the needs of adults, The Excel Center helps students prepare for life after high school by offering college credits and industry-recognized certification courses all at no cost. Free onsite child care and transportation assistance are also available to students.

The Excel Center is perfectly positioned to help adult learners realize their potential.

“The Excel Center has changed my l ife.”

ACHIEVING SUCCESS

Dakota McLaughlin experienced significant challenges growing up. His mother passed away when he was young, and he was also bullied at school, especially when he came out as gay, which often left him feeling alone. After experiencing domestic violence from a family member, Dakota felt safer leaving home, even though he had nowhere else to go.

“I dropped out of school and ended up homeless,” Dakota said. “I fell in with the wrong crowd and started using methamphetamines. My life quickly spiraled out of control.”

Dakota ended up involved with the justice system, but that wasn’t the main catalyst for his change.

“I knew I had hit rock bottom when I woke up on the sidewalk after a three-day bender, covered in ice,” Dakota admits.

His probation officer suggested enrolling at The Excel Center, Goodwill’s tuition-free high school for adults, to earn his diploma. He was initially reluctant due to a learning disability, but he decided to give it a try.

“The Excel Center helped me develop a growth mindset, which alleviated some of the anxiety I was struggling with,” Dakota said.

He also worked with a Goodwill Mission Coach a life and career coach who assisted him through the college application and financial aid process. Mission coaches help students map out their education and career paths post-graduation, pushing them to strive for more.

At his graduation in 2021, Dakota courageously shared his story and how The Excel Center presented a new path and opportunity to help others who have faced similar challenges. He is currently enrolled at Ivy Tech Community College pursuing an associate of science degree in criminal justice and plans to continue his education upon graduation.

“What I’ve experienced does not define me,” Dakota said. “How I use my experience defines me.”

Damiyah Lawrence

“I had a lot of teachers helping me with anything I needed, making sure I understood everything, and they were there every step of the way.”

GROWING WITH GOODWILL

When Damiyah Lawrence enrolled at Indianapolis Metropolitan High School during her freshman year, she struggled with a learning disability.

“I knew I needed help, but I was too embarrassed to ask for it,” Damiyah said.

The COVID-19 pandemic struck during her sophomore year, and students were required to finish out the school year through remote learning.

“It was especially difficult to focus and get help when I was trying to learn from home,” Damiyah said.

When students returned to in-person classes, Damiyah worked with the staff at Indy Met to bring up her grades. Her confidence increased, and she was no longer reluctant to seek help from her teachers.

“The staff at Indy Met wants to see students succeed,” Damiyah said. “I had a lot of teachers helping me with anything I needed, making sure I understood everything, and they were there every step of the way.”

She took a leading role on the Puma Advisory Council, encouraged the school to bring back the cheerleading squad and

was selected as the prom queen. Damiyah also earned a Certified Nurses Aide certification at Indy Met, which she needed for her current job at a retirement home.

“I’m grateful that I had the opportunity to earn a certification that allows me to have a job with a decent wage,” Damiyah said.

Indy Met is a best-fit school for students experiencing circumstances that may present a barrier to education and places an emphasis on ensuring students enroll in college or enter into a career that offers a living wage post-graduation.

Goodwill Partnership with Per Scholas Brings New Opportunities

Goodwill of Central & Southern Indiana recently received a generous $2.8M grant from Lilly Endowment Inc, which will support Goodwill's collaboration with Per Scholas, a national organization that advances economic mobility by connecting graduates to highgrowth careers in technology. Together with Per Scholas, the partnership will bring training and employment opportunities to hundreds of Indianapolis residents in an effort to increase equity and diversity within Indianapolis’ technology sector.

“These funds from Lilly Endowment will help support the ambitious goals of this partnership, and we’re thankful to have their support in bringing technology training and employment opportunities to our community,” said Kent A. Kramer, president and CEO of

Goodwill of Central & Southern Indiana. “We hope our work will inspire additional partnerships that connect individuals with equitable opportunities to access the education and training needed to secure in-demand career opportunities, like those available in the technology sector.”

Through an innovative relationship, Per Scholas will become a community partner with Goodwill, and the Per Scholas Indianapolis office will operate and offer its tuition-free technical training from Goodwill’s headquarters at 1635 W. Michigan St. in Indianapolis.

Per Scholas has advanced economic equity for more than 25 years by offering evidence-based, tuitionfree technology training and connecting Per Scholas graduates to high-growth careers in technology. Aligned with its commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and

belonging, 85 percent of Per Scholas learners are people of color, and more than a third identify as women. Graduates are hired into tech roles by employers ranging from Fortune 500 to innovative startups.

“We are so grateful to Goodwill of Central & Southern Indiana for the warm welcome to Indianapolis, as well as the incredible support of both Lilly Endowment and Salesforce,” said Plinio Ayala, president and CEO of Per Scholas. “Indianapolis is a growing tech hub in America’s heartland, and we’re looking forward to bringing our best-in-class technology skills training to the city.”

The five-year grant will support Per Scholas’ expansion to Indianapolis, the national tech training nonprofit’s 20th city. The first course offered by Per Scholas Indianapolis began in the spring of 2023.

JACOB BARRETT RECEIVES

NATIONAL AWARD FROM GOODWILL INDUSTRIES

Congratulations to Jacob Barrett, a 2018 graduate of The Excel Center, for being honored as Goodwill Industries International’s Achiever of the Year. This award honors a person who has shown great progress and accomplishment in overcoming challenges to finding employment, and who still benefits from the Goodwill work environment or receives services to support employment at a community site. Jacob was selected among candidates from more than 150 Goodwills in North America.

PERSEVERING AND PAYING IT FORWARD

When Lacee McCorkle connected to Goodwill Nurse-Family Partnership (NFP) in 2019, she was at a turning point in her life. She had recently graduated from a recovery home after 15 years of drug use and a period of incarceration.

“I was homeless and hopeless prior to sobriety,” Lacee said. “I had no responsibilities and no drive to achieve a better life."

After learning she was pregnant with twins, her probation officer encouraged her to enroll in Goodwill NFP for additional support. NFP is a maternal health

program that pairs first-time moms with a registered nurse who makes home visits from pregnancy until the child is two years old.

“I am nearly 5 years sober, a married, stay-at-home mother of two-year-old twins, and will graduate from Purdue University Global this summer,” Lacee said. “One of the greatest things I can attribute to my success is the Nurse-Family Partnership program.

Empowered through her own hardearned success, Lacee is eager to pay it forward in her community.

“When I was released, I realized there is a lack of rehabilitative services for women,” Lacee said.

She now leads a support group at the Shelby County Jail that prepares women for life once they’re released from incarceration. She also earned a Peer Recovery certification, which allows her to work with individuals struggling with addiction. She couldn’t have imagined it at the time, but that turning point four years ago has exceeded her expectations.

“My kids not only changed my life they saved my life,” Lacee said.

“My kids not only changed my life – they saved my life.”

Partnership

Expands to Serve More Families

Goodwill Nurse-Family Partnership will expand to serve even more Hoosiers in the coming year. Thanks to funding from both the Indiana State Department of Health and Lilly Endowment Inc., the evidencebased model can now be implemented in 61 Indiana counties, increasing the NFP Nurse capacity for families facing concentrated barriers.

Goodwill NFP Nurses are specially educated to provide prenatal care and support to families so they can achieve a healthy pregnancy and birth. The nurses share trusted information on how to bond with and keep their babies safe. They assist parents and their families with breastfeeding, safe sleep, prenatal care, reducing infant death and encouraging smoking cessation – all in an effort to support the Indiana Department of Health and Governor Holcomb’s goal to be “Best in the Midwest” in lowering the state’s infant mortality rate.

Since its implementation in 2011, Goodwill NFP has served more than 5,000 families experiencing overlapping barriers.

Highlights of the program include:

• 80% of NFP-enrolled parents who self-reported tobacco use during pregnancy quit or reduced before their child’s birth.

• 89% of NFP-enrolled Indiana babies are born full term.

• To date, the program has ensured the best start for more than 4,000 babies.

As the program expands into more counties, some of which are maternal health care deserts, these metrics of success should only increase. Most importantly, the Indiana infant mortality rate can be improved even further by a greater area of service. Goodwill NFP is resolutely committed to lowering this rate, which is not only affected by factors like inadequate prenatal care and unsafe sleep conditions, but also socioeconomic factors.

“Research indicates poverty, education and employment status can greatly affect infant mortality,” said president and CEO of Goodwill of Central and Southern Indiana, Kent A. Kramer. “Goodwill Nurse-Family Partnership works to break generational cycles to provide the very best start for Hoosier children.”

GOODWILL LEADERSHIP & FINANCIALS

INCOME STATEMENT | Goodwill Consolidated

Making a Difference

Launched in 2014, the Goodwill Young Leaders is an advisory board of young professionals who are committed to promoting Goodwill’s mission to change lives every day. The objective of the board is to build future philanthropic leaders at Goodwill. They impact the mission through direct volunteer service, philanthropic giving and the facilitation of new relationships. Since its founding, the group has raised more than $138,000 to support some of the most vulnerable members of our community.

“One of the primary goals of the Goodwill Young Leaders is to advocate for Goodwill’s mission, especially among our peers, by encouraging financial donations and illustrating the impact Goodwill has in the community,” said Alex Swider, chair of the Goodwill Young Leaders Board.

One of the group’s most significant initiatives is its annual Mission Impact Grant, which awards a program at Goodwill with $10,000 to fund mission needs. These grants have supported financial literacy incentives, a legal expungement program, and a program that hired and trained doulas to help with childbirth. Most recently, the grant helped the Anderson Excel Center launch a program that offers students food on site, which will be considered for replication at Excel Centers statewide if successful.

Goodwill Young Leaders perform mock interviews with students at Goodwill’s schools to help prepare them for their post-high school careers and organize other volunteer opportunities, like sorting through donations at Goodwill’s retail operations and supporting graduations at The Excel Center.

“I was attracted to the Goodwill Young Leaders because of the important work Goodwill is doing in the community,” Alex said. “Beyond being charitable, Goodwill empowers individuals who want to change their lives by providing them with the tools needed to achieve their independence.”

BOARD CHAIRS’ MESSAGE

When a family or an individual is struggling economically, there are often multiple contributors and challenges to overcome. For example, someone who struggles with homelessness may also have a limited education or criminal history, or lack transportation, health care or child care, which makes getting and maintaining employment a significant challenge.

Since these challenges are often interdependent, it’s difficult to remove one without addressing them all, which is why Goodwill’s unique approach provides holistic services to individuals by wrapping multiple resources around them simultaneously.

As the inspiring stories throughout this Annual Report illustrate, people can change their lives when they’re empowered with the right tools, and that’s exactly what we do at Goodwill, with the support of people like you who donate, shop and give financially.

The Goodwill Foundation of Central & Southern Indiana celebrated its most successful Annual Fund year ever in 2022, with both individual and institutional donors showing that they see Goodwill as a wise and safe investment for their charitable giving. With community partners who are as dedicated to the mission of changing lives as we are, there’s no doubt that we are equipped to not only meet but also exceed the promise of our mission.

Thanks to your dedication to changing lives, we a re positioned to grow and expand our m ission to more Hoosiers than ever before!
