Goodwill Industries of Southeastern Louisiana

Goodwill Industries of Southeastern Louisiana offers opportunities to people with disabilities and other employment barriers to improve their economic self-sufficiency through training, education, support services and employment.

While many charitable organizations focus on handouts, Goodwill focuses your donations on handups. Your donations fund programs that help people with barriers improve their economic self-sufficiency by providing training, education, support services, and employment. By working to habilitate those in need, we turn your donations into gifts that help people for the rest of their lives.
