In reply to D McCarty. I am sure Goodwill will assist you in obtaining some level of employment. Contact your local office and approach them about your situation. Best of Luck

I was very happy to see your support for the LGBT community. Many thrift stores are anti-equality. I respect your company and will not shop at any other thrift store 🙂

I am 59 years old and have a paralegal degree, a insurance license in property and casualy and can not find a job. I have been told I am over qualified, have not hear back from interviews and have even been told that the company did not have anything to meet my demands (which I did not have any and told them I would work any hours or days). These answers are just ways around telling me that I am to old. I have an interview with Goodwill coming up and I just wonder how their hiring is for people my age. I have all of the qualifications for the job, can work any day or hours but how will they handle the age of a person that is 59?

I was surprised and encouraged to find this section of your website. So many in the LGBT community have so few sources of support in their communities. I work in the employment sector and will definitely refer clients to your website in general and this section in particular for helpful information. Many thanks for your support.
