My Story: Stephanie Gayle

Stephanie separated from her husband and had a hard time making ends meet and supporting her daughters. Goodwill's Beyond Jobs program for single mothers helped connect her to training and employment opportunities, and taught her how to budget. She now has a full-time job and a house for her two girls. She says, "It feels good to know all my hard work has paid off."
Get Organized for the Seasonal Switcheroo

It’s that time of year again…the weather is changing, and we need to dress differently. Even in Texas where I live, we are wearing long sleeves some evenings already, which is a welcome adjustment from the blazing heat! Each year when you pull out those bulky sweaters and coats or put them away, you have an opportunity to make decisions about what to keep. Your closet is one of the first things you see every morning, and making it easier on yourself to choose clothing quickly and get on your way can make every day start out better.
