Goodwill, Other Nonprofits Seeking Assistance

 3/24/2020

Goodwill Industries of Tulsa is joining all other Goodwill organizations and hundreds of other charities to ask Congress for $60 billion in relief in response to COVID-19 and the economic downturn.

“The 12 million workers in America’s charities are on the frontlines of the coronavirus response, and the financial impact of the crisis has put the very survival of many essential service providers at risk,” says Steven Preston, president and CEO of Goodwill Industries International.

In the months and years after the coronavirus pandemic passes, the services Goodwill Industries of Tulsa provides will be integral to rebuilding eastern Oklahoma’s and southwestern Missouri’s economy. Our job training, job placement, and employment services will be in high demand. But we need help getting through this pandemic.

We encourage you to join us send a note to lawmakers in support of a COVID-19 relief package for nonprofits nationwide by following this link.
