About Goodwill Industries of Middle Georgia and the CSRA

Goodwill Industries of Middle Georgia & the CSRA's Mission is help people discover and develop their God-given gifts through education, work, and career development services. The Macon and Augusta, Georgia based non-profit has placed over 6,820 people in jobs in the last five years.

Dr. Edgar J. Helms, Jr., founded the Goodwill movement in Boston in 1902 based on one simple philosophy: What people really want is "not charity, but a chance"​ to work.

Goodwill Industries of Middle Georgia was founded in 1975. When James K. Stiff, came to Goodwill of Middle Georgia in 1994, the organization was still very small, employing only 60 individuals. Mr. Stiff saw the need for the services that Goodwill provides in the CSRA and added them in 1996. Since then, Goodwill Industries of Middle Georgia and the CSRA has grown to over 700 individuals on payroll and 14 value retail stores.
