Initiative Spotlight

Goodwill Clean Tech Accelerator™:   The Future Lies in Clean Tech

More than 9 million clean energy jobs will be created in the next 10 years, jobs that pay well and 40% of which don’t require college degrees.

Goodwill is partnering with Accenture and General Motors to target the most in-demand clean energy jobs to fill this critical talent gap, which include solar pump installers, electric vehicle supply equipment technicians, and heat pump installers. Your support can help expand this critical effort.

We are seeking partners to amplify the reach and impact of the Goodwill Clean Tech Accelerator, creating pathways to equitable and sustainable employment in the clean energy sector.
