Working

for Good
ANNUAL REPORT 2018
GOODWILL OF CENTRAL AND COASTAL VIRGINIA
Working for Good September 2019

Despite low unemployment rates in Virginia, thousands of people in our communities still face

challenges to securing and maintaining employment. The unemployment rate for people with

disabilities is twice the rate of those without disabilities. At the same time, employers in many sectors

are continuing to experience extreme difficulties recruiting and retaining a strong and stable

workforce. 

The good news?

Goodwill of Central and Coastal Virginia plays a leading role in preparing job seekers and matching

them with employers who are ready to hire.

In 2018, we helped 1,644 individuals secure employment in a wide variety of industries. That’s more

than four people per day whose lives changed through the power of work. 

Thanks to your support, Goodwill provides workforce development services for people who have a wide

range of needs: people who have disabilities, language barriers, limited education, gaps in

employment or who lack skills and credentials. 

Our career advisors work one-on-one to discover job seekers’ aspirations and experience, and

together they develop individualized career plans. We offer training programs -- at no charge -- to

help job seekers acquire skills, confidence and job readiness. 

We also introduced a new role in 2018--Success Coaches--to ensure even more long-term success.

In many cases, people don’t lose jobs because of poor performance. They lose jobs because of

breakdowns in major life factors such as transportation, childcare or illness. Our success coaches help

them navigate these challenges.

Whether you shop, donate or partner with Goodwill, thank you. Together we are working for good.

Coaching for Good
When Dorenzo Cyril Moody began working at Goodwill in 2014,

the organization’s mission of changing lives…helping people help

themselves through the power of work resonated strongly with him. 

“I was amazed that there was an organization that had a mission

statement that I believed in,” said Moody. “My personal mission was

similar to what I saw at Goodwill, that work gives purpose to

your life.”

In his five-year tenure, Moody has provided career development

services for job seekers, and recently transitioned to a became a

success coach. In his new role, Moody supports individuals after

they are placed into employment to help them overcome obstacles

— personal or professional — that may jeopardize their employment

stability. His peer-to-peer style support enables him to connect with

participants, foster a positive attitude and put people in touch with

resources they may need to develop sustainable, long-term change

in their lives.

 “Working for Goodwill allows me to target what I consider to be

three main barriers that most people face at some point in their

Dorenzo Moody
lives: Employment, the lack of or need of; transportation, which is a

big deal; and lastly, a place to live," said Moody.  "I’ve overcome those

challenges in my life, so I’m able to give back now.” 

Moody suffered from depression in his late-20s, leading to an eight-year battle with

homelessness. A manager who took a chance on him enabled Moody to take the first

steps to rebuilding his life after he hit rock bottom. Now, Moody uses his experience to

remain humble in his work, build trust with the participants in his case load and help them

break down their barriers to success into manageable steps. 

Moody has helped many people at Goodwill, but one

individual stands out to him. A job seeker asked for

Moody by name at Goodwill, stating that he had been

given his information while incarcerated. 

After 35 years in prison, the man was struggling to find

work, write a resume or even use an iPhone. 

Starting with a positive mindset, Moody assured

the man that they would “figure it out.” After working

through a career plan and redeveloping his resume

together, they found an employer who was ready to

take a chance on someone trying hard to rebuild his life.

"Goodwill really does change lives through

"Work gives purpose to your life,"

says Moody, who passes that

message on to job seekers.

the power of work," said Moody.

 Empowering for Good
When Helen “Page” Powell joined Goodwill six years ago,

she was looking for a “good, healthy change." As part

of Goodwill's group supported employment program for individuals

with disabilities, Powell found that change in a collaborative,

supportive environment and now works as a textile hanger at

Goodwill’s Lynnhaven retail store in Virginia Beach. She

has come a long way from being an occasional Goodwill

shopper, looking for cute teacups and water bottles,

to an enthusiastic associate with a job in which she thrives. 

Powell is funny and sociable, and she enjoys making her

coworkers laugh. She said that she is focused on her

personal development and improving her performance at work. 

Helen "Page"

Powell
Powell has worked with Tasha Greene, a Goodwill employment skills trainer, throughout

her entire Goodwill career.  The focused support Greene offers has helped Powell to

excel in her role, as well as learn how to navigate complex inter-personal relationships

in the workplace.

“Page continues to flourish and has limitless capacity for greatness,” said Greene.

“She has been able to exhibit versatility in the manipulation of tasks throughout the store

and continues to make progress with her ability to effectively maintain positive

relationships.  It is one of my greatest pleasures to see someone be able to live their best

life and I get to witness this on a regular basis with Page,” added Greene.

Powell’s life goal (besides becoming famous one day) is to expand her horizons for

advocating. She is passionate about disability employment issues, joining local advocacy

group “Our Voices” and speaking to the Goodwill of Central and Coastal Virginia Board

of Directors on her experiences and challenges.  

Previously, she has spoken at the “Polar Plunge,” an

annual fund-raising event in Hampton Roads

that she partakes in almost every year, as well as the

Special Olympics, in which she is a long-time competitor. 

After speaking at several advocacy group events, Powell

wants people to know “I do have a purpose; my

purpose is to help other people with different kinds of

disabilities, to help them to find a job.”

Her favorite Goodwill core values are respect and integrity,

and she strives to model them in her behavior.  Powell said

she is empowered by her employment and strongly believes

in Goodwill’s mission of helping people help themselves

Partnering for Good

“Giving back to the community is important to us,

and working with Goodwill was a natural extension

of that. We are excited to partner with Goodwill to

hire people who are in transition and need training.

Some are in unique situations and we are willing

to be creative to help them get to that next level.”
