Marla

< Previous   Next >

“It's fun working at Goodwill. I like tagging target clothes and sorting. The customers are nice; I like helping them.


Marla can hang anywhere from 500-700 garments per day!

Marla has been with Goodwill since she started as a student in 2002. She then moved to adult services in the Whitehall Retail Partnership as a trainee. She worked three summers for the Blackberry Meadows Farm partnership and returned to Whitehall to continue her training. Marla can hang anywhere from 500-700 garments daily depending on the supply. When clothing donations are low, she contacts her friends and family from Pittsburgh to New York and urges them to donate, so that she has something to hang.

"I hope to stay with Goodwill and I may explore the health care field. For now, I am happy I removed that barrier – not having a high school diploma."

Jennifer received her GED with Goodwill and now holds a steady job with Goodwill in Uniontown.
