A Message from the President
Thank you for your interest in Goodwill Industries of Southwest Oklahoma and North Texas. We are proud to be a contributing member of the many communities in our area. Through the last 40+ years, we have strived to assist people with disabilities to obtain the maximum independence to live a happy and productive life.
As a donor or shopper in our retail stores, you help us provide services to people with disabilities such as job training, or day services for the elderly.
We are interested in hearing from our donors, shoppers, and the people we serve. Please e-mail, call, or write if you have questions or concerns about our organization. Of course, we are happy to hear about the things we are doing well, too!
