Meet Kia.
She was diagnosed with cerebral palsy at a young age and never let it stop her from going after her dreams. "Anything an able-bodied person can do, I can do."
Kia has lived independently since 17, working multiple jobs at a time just to keep up.
Then she joined Goodwill Keystone's workforce partnership with the PennDOT Driver License Center in Lancaster, and her life changed.
"I cried when they gave me full time. I'm able to save now and pay my bills instead of living check to check."
Stories like Kia's are why we do what we do. Every donation supports job training and employment partnerships that change lives across 22 counties in PA.
"When you donate at Goodwill, you are supporting people to find good jobs, like me."
