Goodwill Industries International is a leading social enterprise nonprofit powered by a network of 150 high-performing local Goodwill organizations across North America. Together, we operate at scale by advancing resale, workforce development, and circular solutions through shared systems and local execution. We are America’s neighbor: 83% of the U.S. population resides within ten miles of their local Goodwill. Donated goods power the Goodwill resale engine, generating revenue that is reinvested into localized workforce development programs — the core of our work. At the same time, our circular resale solutions support sustainability by extending product life, diverting billions of pounds of materials from landfills annually, and building greater transparency and accountability across reuse.

Best Buddies International is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to establishing a global volunteer movement that creates opportunities for one-to-one friendships, integrated employment, leadership development, inclusive living, and family support for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). The IDD community that Best Buddies serves includes, but is not limited to, people with Down syndrome, autism, Fragile X syndrome, Williams syndrome, cerebral palsy, traumatic brain injury, and other intellectual and developmental disabilities. Best Buddies is the world's largest organization dedicated to ending the social, physical, and economic isolation of the more than 200 million people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) worldwide. Through our five mission pillars, we empower people with IDD to build meaningful friendships, secure successful jobs, develop leadership and self-advocacy skills, live more independently, and provide families with the support and resources they need to thrive. Together, we're creating a more inclusive world where people with IDD, their families, and their communities are empowered to reach their full potential.
