SINCE 2004, RECONNECT HAS DIVERTED 427 MILLION POUNDS OF COMPUTER EQUIPMENT FROM LANDFILLS ACROSS THE U.S. SAVING LOCAL GOVERNMENTS SIGNIFICANT DOLLARS AND MITIGATING HAZARDOUS WASTE ISSUES. THE RECONNECT COLLABORATION WORKS BECAUSE IT PAIRS THE STRENGTHS OF BOTH ORGANIZATIONS. GOODWILL HAS AN ESTABLISHED NETWORK OF DONATION LOCATIONS AND NEARLY A CENTURY OF EXPERIENCE WITH DONATED GOODS. DELL IS COMMITTED TO RESPONSIBLE CONSUMER RECYCLING PROGRAMS. THE SYNERGY CREATES A FREE AND CONVENIENT WAY FOR PEOPLE TO RECYCLE UNWANTED COMPUTERS AND INCREASES AWARENESS OF THE IMPORTANCE OF RESPONSIBLE RECYCLING. IT KEEPS THESE ELECTRONIC ITEMS OUT OF LANDFILLS, THUS REDUCING THE BURDEN ON LOCAL COMMUNITY GOVERNMENTS. IN ADDITION, RECONNECT CREATES "GREEN JOBS" WITH GOODWILL EMPLOYEES HANDLING THE COLLECTION AND SORTING OF EQUIPMENT. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------- CARF ACCREDITATION ------------------ SINCE 1972, GOODWILL'S PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN ACCREDITED BY THE INTERNATIONAL COMMISSION ON ACCREDITATION OF REHABILITATION FACILITIES (CARF) EVERY THREE YEARS. CARF IS AN INDEPENDENT NOT-FOR-PROFIT AGENCY PROMOTING QUALITY, VALUE, AND OPTIMAL OUTCOMES OF SERVICES THROUGH A CONSULTATIVE PROCESS THAT CENTERS ON ENHANCING THE LIVES OF THE PERSONS RECEIVING SERVICES. OUR CARF ACCREDITATION ENSURES THAT: > OUR PROGRAMS AND SERVICES ACTIVELY INVOLVE CONSUMERS IN SELECTING, PLANNING, AND USING SERVICES. > OUR PROGRAMS AND SERVICES HAVE MET CONSUMER-FOCUSED, STATE-OF-THE-ART NATIONAL STANDARDS OF PERFORMANCE. > OUR ORGANIZATION IS FOCUSED ON ASSISTING EACH CONSUMER IN ACHIEVING HIS OR HER CHOSEN GOALS AND OUTCOMES. IN OUR MOST RECENT CARF ACCREDITATION SURVEY, CONDUCTED IN 2014, GOODWILL WAS COMMENDED FOR DEMONSTRATING EXEMPLARY CONFORMANCE TO THE STANDARDS AS DOCUMENTED IN THE SURVEY REPORT: > THE ORGANIZATION HAS A MISSION STATEMENT THAT EMPHASIZES PARTNERSHIPS AND COLLABORATION WITH OTHER COMMUNITY AGENCIES. ITS EMPHASIS ON VARIOUS COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS IS EXCEPTIONAL. COOPERATIVE EFFORTS WITH THE COMMUNITY COLLEGES ARE EVIDENT. ADDITIONAL EXAMPLES INCLUDE CRISIS CONTROL MINISTRY AND THE CROSBY SCHOLARS COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP. THESE PARTNERSHIPS HAVE BEEN INITIATED IN ORDER TO ENHANCE THE LIVES OF THE PEOPLE SERVED BY GOODWILL AND TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS. > THE BUSINESS ADVISORY MODEL ADOPTED BY THIS GOODWILL APPEARS TO BE INVOLVED, UNIQUE, AND EXCEPTIONALLY SUCCESSFUL. BUSINESS ADVISORY COUNCILS ARE TRADITIONALLY DIFFICULT TO FORM, CULTIVATE AND ENGAGE. GOODWILL HAS DEVELOPED EXCEPTIONAL COUNCILS, SOME OF WHICH HAVE BEEN FORMED ALONG INDUSTRY LINES SUCH AS OFFICE TECHNOLOGY, HEALTH SERVICES, AND SERVICE INDUSTRY THAT PROMOTE RELATIONSHIP BUILDING THROUGHOUT THE RESPECTIVE COMMUNITIES. THESE RELATIONSHIPS ALLOW ACCESS TO INFORMATION REGARDING EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES THAT CAN THEN BE EFFECTIVELY USED TO RAISE POTENTIAL EARNING LEVELS FOR INDIVIDUALS WHILE MEETING COMMUNITY NEEDS. THE ACTIVE, ENERGETIC BUSINESS ADVISORY COUNCILS ARE INSTRUMENTAL IN ENHANCING EMPLOYMENT SERVICES OFFERED. THE KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERTISE THE COMMUNITY LEADERS BRING TO THE COUNCILS NOT ONLY STRENGTHEN THE QUALITY OF SERVICES, BUT ALSO PROVIDE AN EXTENSIVE NETWORK LEADING TO ADDITIONAL JOB OPPORTUNITIES FOR PERSONS SERVED. GOODWILL WAS ALSO COMMENDED BY CARF FOR ITS STRENGTH IN HAVING "A BOARD OF DIRECTORS THAT IS DEDICATED, DIVERSE, AND ENGAGED THROUGH AN ACTIVE COMMITTEE STRUCTURE. PARTICIPATION IS REQUIRED ON AT LEAST ONE OF THE COMMITTEES; I.E., EXECUTIVE, RECRUITMENT, WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT, FINANCE, AUDIT, CONTRACT SERVICES, PERSONNEL, AND MARKETING. SENIOR STAFF MEMBERS PRESENT AT EACH BOARD MEETING IN CONJUNCTION WITH THEIR RESPECTIVE BOARD COMMITTEE(S)." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------- ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT -------------------- GOODWILL OFFERS DONORS A WAY TO DISPOSE OF THEIR UNWANTED ITEMS WHILE HELPING THEIR COMMUNITY AND THE ENVIRONMENT.

THROUGH EFFICIENT AND RESPONSIBLE PROCESSING, 100% OF POST-CONSUMER ELECTRONICS AND 99% OF DONATED TEXTILES ARE SOLD OR RECYCLED. THESE AMOUNTS GREATLY REDUCE THE COST BURDEN ON LOCAL GOVERNMENTS. IN 2008, GOODWILL OPENED ITS WHITAKER REGIONAL OPERATIONS CENTER IN WINSTON-SALEM. THIS FACILITY WAS DESIGNED TO THE US GREEN BUILDING COUNCIL'S STRINGENT LEED (LEADERSHIP IN ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN) STANDARDS AND RECENTLY BECAME LEED CERTIFIED.
