Here for Arkansas. Always.

For 98 years, you’ve lifted Arkansans through education, training, and employment. Nearly 90 cents of every dollar stays here, strengthening our communities from the Delta to the Ozarks. This is our Goodwill. This is Arkansas.

This is the Power of Your Gift in 2025

For generations, Goodwill has been the place where Arkansans turn when they need a second chance, a fresh start, or a path forward. But this work only continues when each new generation chooses to sustain it. Your financial and in-kind donations ensure that tomorrow’s families have the same lifeline of hope, training, and opportunity.

Individuals Served

Your goods and gifts power vital support for Arkansans and strengthen communities across the state. And unlike for-profit thrift, your donations stay in Arkansas, building a charitable enterprise of good for your neighbors.

Career Credentials Earned

Students in Goodwill’s Academy gain high-demand credentials that increase wages an average of 9% and provide access to free or low-cost education for overlooked communities. Help close the funding gap and put opportunity within reach.

117

Adult Diplomas Earned

A diploma changes everything. At Goodwill’s Excel Center, adults earn higher wages and greater job stability than GED earners, supported by childcare, transportation, and a school built for underserved learners.

“Not having my high school diploma stopped me from doing a lot of things. Goodwill has taught me that no matter the situation you’re going through there’s always a solution.”
