The mission of Easter Seals Goodwill Industries is “to enhance employment, educational, social and recreational opportunities for people with disabilities and other challenges.”
We Put Your Donations and Dollars to Work!
Easter Seals Goodwill Industries' innovative employment services and programs depend on the financial support of foundations, businesses and individuals. Your gift to Easter Seals Goodwill Industries is a meaningful investment in our mission to enhance employment, educational, social and recreational opportunities for people with disabilities and other challenges.
Because of our employment and community services, individuals in many towns of the greater New Haven and Middletown areas have been provided with an opportunity to lead more productive lives. They have had the opportunity to build independence, self-confidence, friendships, creativity and trust.
