As we continue our 10-year throwback series, we're looking back at a milestone from 2021, when GoodWork Staffing was named one of Charlotte's Top 16 Staffing Agencies by Expertise.

As a division of Goodwill Industries of the Southern Piedmont, GoodWork Staffing helps connect job seekers with employers while generating revenue that supports our mission.

Looking back on moments like these reminds us how far we've come over the past decade and inspires us for what lies ahead.

October is Careers in Construction Month! Meet Austin, a Facilities Technician at Goodwill and graduate of our Construction Skills Training program. When we opened Rewind, our record and media store, Austin played an important role in bringing the space to life, building many of the custom fixtures and features shoppers see today.

Jordan thought success meant following a certain path. After completing Goodwill's tuition-free Construction Basics & HVAC training, she discovered a passion for the skilled trades and is now working as a Maintenance Technician with Marsh Properties.

The skilled trades shortage could leave as many as 2.1M jobs unfilled by 2030.

We're joining @lowesfoundation to launch the nation's largest trades coalition and help train and develop over one million people for skilled trades careers by 2035.

We loved welcoming the CMPD Youth Envision Academy to Goodwill's Opportunity Campus! 💙

Students toured our campus, learned about community resources and participated in workshops focused on communication, teamwork, problem-solving, emotional intelligence and resume-building skills.

We're grateful to be part of experiences that help young people explore new opportunities and prepare for their future!
