James' Success Story

James was our 2004 Achiever of the Year. Several years ago, a gunshot wound left him confined to a wheelchair, but that hasn't stopped him. James works in Contract Services doing receiving, packing and shipping for many of our corporate customers. He also provides valuable advice to Goodwill newcomers about dealing with life's setbacks. "Goodwill helped me when I was down on my luck, and I like doing the same for others."
