Canadian Goodwill Industries

Established in 1931, in the time of the Great Depression, a Minister of the United Church started a second-hand store from the remainders of a rummage sale. His goals were a) to offer employment to those who could not find employment due to the Great Depression and b) to offer Manitoban citizens, items which they needed at a low-price. Since 1931, Canadian Goodwill has been incorporated and is now identified as a non-profit charitable organization. The objectives of Canadian Goodwill are to provide vocational services, rehabilitation services, and employment for persons with physical, developmental, emotional or social disabilities, whose disability are obstacles to their employment in the open market. By collecting, refurbishing and selling used articles, Canadian Goodwill help provide these Manitoban individuals with an income, independence and self esteem. Come see us today!
