Goodwill Central Texas is proud to share that we have been named a recipient of the 2026 VETS Indexes Employer Award. This national recognition highlights organizations committed to supporting veterans and military spouses through meaningful employment opportunities.
Receiving this honor reflects our ongoing commitment to creating pathways to quality jobs while strengthening the communities we serve.
Expanding Opportunity for Those Who Served
At Goodwill Central Texas, our mission is rooted in helping people obtain education, training, and careers that lead to long-term success. Being recognized by VETS Indexes affirms the work happening across our organization to ensure veterans and military families have access to those opportunities.
From recruitment efforts to workplace support, this recognition highlights the intentional steps we are taking to broaden our talent pipelines and invest in individuals who bring valuable skills, experience, and leadership to our workforce.
A Step Toward a Stronger Workplace
The 2026 VETS Indexes Award also supports Goodwill Central Texas’ larger vision of becoming a Great Place to Work®. This goal is centered on fostering a culture of engagement, inclusion, and opportunity for all team members.
By investing in people—especially those who have served—we’re strengthening our organization and creating a more resilient, connected community.
Recognizing the People Behind the Work
This achievement wouldn’t be possible without the dedication of team members who are committed to advancing our mission every day.
We also want to recognize Samantha Condo, our Business Development Manager, who played a key role in this recognition by submitting Goodwill Central Texas for the award. As a veteran herself, Samantha brings a deep understanding of the importance of continued service and opportunity.
She shared:
“What excites me most about working with Goodwill and GSG is seeing the real impact our work has in the community. Helping local businesses find the people they need while also opening doors for folks who just need an opportunity to get to work is incredibly rewarding. As a veteran, it means a lot to be able to continue serving my community in a different way.”
Looking Ahead
While this recognition is an important milestone, it is just one step in our ongoing journey. Goodwill Central Texas remains committed to expanding opportunities and strengthening our workforce. We aim to ensure that every individual has access to the tools and support they need to succeed.
