Meet George

George, who is legally blind, started coming to the La Crosse Goodwill in 2014 and received assistance from Taylor, a Goodwill team member, while he shopped the store.

Eight years later, neither one knew the special friendship that would develop. While shopping together in 2021, George told Taylor he was looking for a part-time job. Taylor approached store leadership about George’s search. Just like that, George, who had been so embraced as a customer, was brought into the Goodwill family as an employee.

“I really enjoy working at Goodwill. I’ve never been treated differently and it’s one of the reasons I really like working here,” said George.
