Five to Thrive

Together, We Can Build Brighter Futures For Central Iowans Through The Power Of Employment – $5 At A Time.

At Goodwill of Central Iowa, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to gain independence through the power of employment.

But we can’t do it without the support of people like you!

If you share our vision of building a vibrant community where purposeful employment is made possible for all, there has never been a better time to join our cause.

WHAT CAN JUST $5 DO?

We often forget that going to work isn’t easy for everyone. Just $5 helps people like Sadie gain the confidence to be a leader among her peers in our Day Services Program.

Building our strengths

Donating as little as $5 ensures people like Margaret gain the experience to become purposefully employed and become a mentor to others on their journey through our Retail and Warehouse Skills Programs.

Celebrating our differences
