02 Oct Ian’s Story
A car accident left Ian with permanent brain damage—damage that made it difficult for him to find work.
“No one would take a chance on me,” he said.
That is, until Goodwill hired Ian as a greeter at the store in Lexington, Tenn.
Since then, Ian has proven he can do just about anything. In addition to his greeter responsibilities, Ian plays a vital role in the weekly color rotation of merchandise. He is also responsible for keeping the book section organized.
“Working gives me a feeling of accomplishment and integrity,” he says. “I would do my job for free.”
