A Helping Hand to the People of Kansas


The Helping Hand of Goodwill Industries, located in Eastern Kansas and Western Missouri, began its life as two seperate administrations, Goodwill Industries and the Helping Hand Institute. They joined forces in 1978 and have never looked back since then. Their name was officially changed to The Helping Hand of Goodwill Industries in 1986.

Since then, this Goodwill Industries chapter has continued to help a lot of people with different programs for the communities they serve. They work hard to supply training courses and work placement opportunities for people in need of a helping hand. It is estimated that they help over a thousand families every year by helping them to find jobs that suit their individual skills and requirements.

In the same way that Goodwill Industries locations all over the country operate, The Helping Hand of Goodwill Industries requires public donations in order to continue their work. From books, to toys, to clothes, to furniture, to cars. Goodwill Industries depends heavily on the contributions made by people like you.

Donating vehicles is more important now than ever. When you donate your car to Goodwill, it will likely be auctioned off, and the money will be used to fund one of their many programs. Other vehicle donations are needed as well. Automobiles, trucks, motor homes and RVs, boats, airplanes, farm equipment, and construction equipment can all be donated to Goodwill Industries. When you donate any of these items you will be eligible for a tax break as a reward.

The Helping Hand of Goodwill Industries are now looking for more vehicle donations and have begun a web campaign asking for more people to donate their used cars. If you have a vehicle you want to donate to Goodwill Industries - anywhere in the country - Charity Dispatch can help.
