My Story: Ora Harris 
February 8, 2010
When I came to Goodwill Industries of Upstate/Midlands South Carolina less than two years ago, I was homeless and living in a shelter. To get to my job at Goodwill, I had to walk from the shelter to the bus stop, and from the mall down a busy street to the facility once I got off the bus. It was a challenge to get to work on time every day, but I never missed a day.
While I was with Goodwill, I did a lot of growing. They helped me get my self-esteem back, and made me appreciate life more. With their help, I was able to get back on my feet and pursue the dreams I have for myself.
