2013 Year in ReviewThis year’s annual report titled “It’s A Tough Job But Someone Has To Do It” refers to the challenges in accomplishingour mission year after year. The water droplets, essential in removing “tough stains” and in our case, as tough as it gets,symbolizes our entry into the world of hospital laundry with the introduction of Goodwill Healthcare Laundry & Linens.

Below are highlights of a few of the accomplishments from various departments at Goodwill this year.

Goodwill’s mission is to train, employ and place people with disabilities intocommunity jobs so they can become self-supporting and independent.

Goodwill’s Mission:

Page 4: “It’s a Tough Job, But Someone Has To Do It” · • Goodwill’s Marketing Department’s object to develop image and brand was accomplished through 86 different events during

Chair & President Report at the ribbon-cutting ceremony alsoattended by community notablesand local elected leaders. PresidentShalala called the UM decision agood business move and noted:“Today is a no-brainer for us. This isnot charity on our part. We’re notonly bringing jobs back to Miami,but we’re doing business with oneof our great partners too: Goodwill.”

The commercial laundry is in thevicinity of Liberty City – acommunity known for its highunemployment rate. The laundrypresently employs 28 workers fromthe area. Most of them havedisabilities and are earningcompetitive wages. Once operatingat its full capacity in one or twoyears, it is anticipated that the directand indirect activities will create 200new jobs. Most of them will benefitone of the poorest neighborhoods inMiami. Helping this area remains acontinuing commitment and asource of pride for us.

As we always proclaim, quiteproudly, our most significantaccomplishment was our missionwork on behalf of men and womenwith disabilities and special needs.We served 4,938 people. Weplaced 1,191 into employmentopportunities and created $33.1million in total new earnings forpreviously unemployed people withdisabilities. These new earningsreturned a dividend to society of$10.34 per each dollar of publicfunds received. These individualswill also pay about $7.5 million innew taxes – almost twice the publicfunds received by Goodwill. Inother words, we made newtaxpayers out of former tax-users.Goodwill’s total payroll of $42.9million made a significantcontribution to the community.

We remain one of the most cost-effective nonprofits in the U.S. withonly 4% of our cost going tomanagement and fund-raising, and96% to direct programs. This ispractically unheard of amongnonprofits in the U.S. Goodwill’s

Dear Friends of Goodwill,

The year 2013 started asexceptionally challenging. TheApparel Manufacturing Divisionfaced a large reduction in militaryuniform orders from the combinedreduction in U.S. military activity andgovernment budget reductions. As aresult, our new laundry constructionfinancing was disrupted for manymonths but eventually restored.Many of our custodial contractsexperienced even more reductions.Things were equally slow in theCommercial Services Division. TheDocument Shredding sectionexperienced a most trying year.

Yet, these challenges that appearedinsurmountable are not new to us.They just reveal “the takingcalculated chances” entrepreneurialspirit of this Goodwill – the spirit thathas led us over the years to createmany new entrepreneurial venturesthat made our Goodwill the large,unique and diversified socialenterprise that it is today.

On the good news front, our retaildivision showed steady growth. Weopened two superstores inLauderhill Mall and North Dixie

Highway in Hollywood. The planningand inventory of a new Biscaynestore was completed and whenopened in February of 2014, itreported the highest grand openingday sales of any of our stores. Weopened numerous trailers andstorefront donation centers.Needless to say, the stores providethe resource that support ourmission. We currently operate 35stores in Miami-Dade and Browardcounties that make a hugecontribution to the bottom line.There is also a total of 89 stores,storefronts and trailers wheredonations from a generous publicare received.

The highlight of the past year wasthe Grand Opening of our new $15million Healthcare Laundry andLinen service in August. It is ourlatest initiative to create jobs forpeople with disabilities, revitalize jobgrowth and help foster economicdevelopment within the immediatearea of Goodwill’s laundry.

Our first customer was none otherthan the University of Miami HealthSystem. UM President, DonnaShalala, paid us the honor ofmaking the announcement herself

Dennis Pastrana:A Tribute

Dennis Pastrana is the longest-serving Goodwill President and CEO, celebrating 50 years.

Dennis and his staff have never ceased toface the unexpected challenges inherent toall businesses. But there were years whenthe obstacles left Dennis and his crewbloodied but unbowed, yet determined notjust to regroup but to surpass all prior levelsof performance.

1992 was a year we will not happily recall.Numerous contarcts, carefully developed atHomestead Air Force Base over eight years,were destroyed by Hurricane Andrew inthree short hours. Three of Goodwill’slargest stores were destroyed. 260employees, 90% of them severely disabledlost their jobs. Annualized revenues droppedfrom $10.5 million to $5.2 million overnight.A gutwrenching fifty percent reduction instaff kept Goodwill solvent.

Dennis Pastrana is marking a half-century ofservice with Goodwill Industries. It is theGolden Anniversary of a career that has ledhim to be recognized as the Dean among160 principal executives in all of the GoodwillIndustries in North America.

South Florida was fortunate to get Dennis in1979, after he kicked-off his career inMilwaukee, Wisconsin, at the largestGoodwill in the United States. He servedthere for nine years, rising to the post ofAssociate Executive Director.

Next, he put in seven years at the NationalHeadquarters of Goodwill Industries inWashington, DC, where he had his handsfull. He was Vice President of MembershipDirect Services, responsible for providingconsultation and executive training to allGoodwills in North America.

The jump to Miami in 1979 didn’t meancoming to a sun-and-fun paradise for thisnative of Cuba and five-year U.S. IntelligentAgency veteran. He came down to take overa small, fractured and virtually bankruptoperation with a few dysfunctional thriftstores. His marching orders as President(and eventually also as CEO) were to restoreand revive the languishing local Goodwill.

Dennis is both an inveterate risk-taker and atenacious person. And his tenacity has paidoff big in South Florida, even in the face ofmajor financial challenges that often seemedlike insurmountable obstacles. GoodwillMiami broke ground for good back in 2004when it underwent a major expansion thathas reached 35 Superstores, 5 store-frontdonation centers, and 84 merchandise-receiving trailers.

Thanks to his perseverance and meticulouslong-range planning, Goodwill Industries ofSouth Florida -- composed of Miami-Dade,Broward and Monroe Counties -- has helpedstimulate economic activity in three counties,creating nearly $493 million in new earningsto fulfill Goodwill’s longtime mission to “Helppeople with disabilities and special needsmake the transition from dependence toindependence.”

Indeed, Dennis succeeded in turning theSouth Florida Goodwill into a socialenterprise to the core. He converted it into abusiness with a social mission that achievesits goals by combining human services anddiversified entrepreneurial businesses thatconsolidated help support and further theGoodwill mission to provide opportunity tothose with disabilities and special needs.

Through the years, the vigorous efforts hespearheaded to bring in new contracts and

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong manstumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongsto the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweatand blood; who strives valiantly;... who at best knows in the end of the triumph ofhigh achievement, and who at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly.”

– Theodore Roosevelt

Yet the hurricane experience gave impetus toone of Goodwill’s most aggressive expansionperiods creating the apparel and flagmanufacturing division, newspaper contractand other businesses.

Today, Goodwill Industries of South Florida isdeservedly known as one of the largest andmost diversified Goodwills in the nation.

As Dennis himself is fond of saying with hisusual modesty, credit must be given wherecredit is due. He’s always the first to admitthat none of what he has achieved wouldhave been possible without the commitmentof a Board of Directors made up ofdistinguished community citizens -- and thefinancial support of benefactors and othercontributors that support the Goodwillmission.

Dennis has undoubtedly left his mark on thecity of Miami in the 34 years since his arrivalin 1979. During all of that time, he has neverceased to provide a healthy balance ofplanning, risk-taking, hard work and businessinnovation to generate the needed revenueto help people with disabilities and specialneeds overcome barriers to employment andbecome self-supporting and independent.

Dennis has been called many things.Creative…Passionate…Inspiring… Mentor…Motivator…Brilliant…Humanitarian. But thedescription that better suits his soul is“Champion for People with Disabilities.”

Dennis Pastrana is – in short –, a remarkablevisionary and a man of hope. And for that, allof South Florida will forever owe him amonumental debt of gratitude.

Dennis Pastrana, 1972. Dennis Pastrana wishing program

participants a happy holiday.

Dennis Pastrana joined our Goodwillin 1979 when the institution was onthe verge of financial collapse. By1981, he had rescued the nonprofitand turned it around financially,modernized its rehabilitationprograms and services. Contrary tomost nonprofits that depend largely ongovernment funding or publiccontributions, he achieved all of thiswithout having to rely on governmentand public support.

In his 34 years of dedicated work,Pastrana has created a trackrecord of significant andunprecedented contributions.

• Helped over 49,000 people withdisabilities and special needssuccessfully complete – and exit –Goodwill’s vocational programsand find new opportunities in life.• Created over $493 million innew earnings for people withdisabilities and special needs thatwere previously unemployable.• Increased total annual revenuesnearly 50 times – from $2.4million in 1979 to $109.1 millionin 2010.• Decreased Government FundingDependence from 47% to 2%.• Increased payroll from $1.6million to $39.1 million annually.• Reduced Management andGeneral cost from 14.8% to 4.0%.• Transformed working capitalfrom a deficit to a very strongfinancial position.• Strenghtened the Balance Sheetincreasing Net Assets from $1.2million to $28.5 million.

It is not difficult to see why ourGoodwill – and people withdisabilities – have needed DennisPastrana’s leadership in making asignificant contribution to thiscommunity. Our local Goodwill mustnot stop being the beacon of hopeand opportunity that it has becomefor South Florida’s disabled underDennis Pastrana.

Goodwill Achievers

Charles G. Rodriguez

Charles G. Rodriguez, 39, graduated from Houston High School in Texas with a Special Education Diploma.He was born in New York City to Argentinean parents. He remains single and still lives with his parents in Miami-Dade. His English proficiency is fair.

Charles was referred to Goodwill in 2005 by Florida’sDivision of Vocational Rehabilitation and was enrolled inthe Work Adjustment Training Program. There, jobcoaches, counselors and supervisors assisted him andprovided close supervision due to his history of seizuredisorder. His lack of a work history required counselors tohelp him develop appropriate work habits and values toprepare Charles for the world of work.

After months of proper training and coaching, staff wereable to compensate for his slow work pace, limited abilityto concentrate and difficulty in retaining and filteringinformation. This helped Charles demonstrate an abilityto learn and gain independence despite his manylimitations.

After successfully completing the Work AdjustmentProgram, Charles was placed into a work opportunity inThe Miami Herald Contract as a downstream worker atan hourly rate of $7.93. It has been a long and difficultroad to overcome the occupational barriers thatpresented major challenges to him. Yet Charles isextremely happy to work and always volunteers to doextra work when available. He gets along well with hisco-workers and likes to engage in conversations.

Charles’ parents have expressed their gratitude toGoodwill’s programs that have greatly contributed to theoverall development of their son. Charles is well aware ofthe great strides and corrections that he has made forhimself.

Patrick Joseph

Patrick Joseph, 48, came to Goodwill as a self-referralseeking services that would lead to employment andindependence. He completed second grade in his nativeHaiti and now lives with his wife in Miami. He speaks bothEnglish and Creole.

Once at Goodwill, Patrick was subsequently referred tothe Florida Division of Vocational Rehabilitation foradditional services. His evaluation revealed that he facedbarriers to employment that included depressive disorder,right hemiparesis (muscular weaknesses) and a hearingimpairment. During adolescence he had typhoid fever inhis native Haiti.

Patrick chose to attend the Custodial Training Programthat he completed very successfully despite his physicalchallenges. Goodwill then hired him to work in the MainPlant where he has remained earning $8.02 per hour.Through integrated supervision and counseling, he haslearned to deal with many of his limitations such as poorambulation, hearing difficulties and an inability to dealwith stress.

His speed of work is improving daily despite his poor gait.Nevertheless, with the support of staff, Patrick isadjusting well to the stressors of everyday work, and hisfrustration tolerances are being minimized. He haslearned to view constructive criticism as a way to improvehis performance, and Patrick remains very optimisticabout his future, his life and his job.

Clearly, Patrick represents what the mission of Goodwillembodies. His success is a tribute to his owndetermination despite his limitations – and he is aninspiring example to many people with disabilities andspecial needs.

Oscar A. Trejo

Oscar Trejo came to Goodwill showing low self-esteemand obsessive-compulsive behaviors brought about byexcessive stress and worrying. He also showed atendency to ruminate about his financial difficulties, hishistory of disabilities and his advanced age of 76.

A native of Honduras, Oscar experienced a childhood ofextreme poverty though he was able to obtain a fifth gradeeducation and even attended a Catholic Seminary toprepare for priesthood. Unfortunately, he did not completehis theology studies.

Prior to coming to Goodwill, Oscar occasionally held oddjobs as a painter. His means of transportation were abicycle and public transportation. He suffered from severeasthmatic bronchitis and had a history of unduedepression.

The Florida Department of Vocational Rehabilitationreferred Oscar to Goodwill for Pre-Placement Servicesand Job Development. Job development provedchallenging because of gaps in his employment historyand a lack of significant work experience. Added to thiswas his limited English proficiency.

But with the help of his Job Placement Specialist, Oscarworked to improve his self-esteem. After a very intensejob search and with the assistance of Goodwill’s JobDevelopment and Placement Services, he obtainedcompetitive employment at First National Bank of SouthMiami where he works 25 hours a week as a landscaperat $8.50 per hour.

Oscar’s success is a tribute to his own determination andthe dedication of the Goodwill staff. He has gained muchconfidence and feels he can face life with a more positivedisposition in the coming years.

Maya Jackson

When Maya Jackson, 43, showed up at Goodwill she couldnever have imagined the transformation that awaited her.Although she had a Special Education diploma, most ofher speech was in monosyllables. She was shy,apprehensive and guarded.

Maya only weighed two pounds at birth, and at an earlyage, she was diagnosed with intellectual and learningdisabilities. She grew up with challenges in reading, writingand numeracy and is also dyslectic.

When Maya was referred to Goodwill Industries’ SupportedEmployment Program, she only communicated with familymembers; she lives in Pompano Beach with her motherand two sisters. She had no work experience so, initially,simple tasks were very challenging, and she was easilyfrustrated.

Luckily, Maya got an opportunity when Wendy’s offered hera job. The intense Goodwill training, coaching and naturalsupports had helped her flourish. Her communicationskills improved dramatically at home and at work. Finally,she was no longer isolated or reserved; she had attainedcompetitive community employment.

Maya now epitomizes an outgoing individual who joins herco-workers in conversation while on break and participatesin social events that her employer sponsors. She obviouslymastered her confidence with the help of her job coach.

Supervisors at Wendy’s have stated that they are highlysatisfied with Maya’s work performance, and she hasreceived awards from Wendy’s for outstanding workperformance. Her earnings have increased from minimumwage to $8.95 per hour. Maya says that she enjoysworking at Wendy’s – and adds that she feels happy andfulfilled in many aspects of her life.

Thrift Stores & Donated Goods

When customers donate clothing,shoes, household items, books,computer, and other valuable itemsto Goodwill, their donations fundprograms that assist people withdisabilities to become employedand self-supporting.

In Miami-Dade and BrowardCounties, Goodwill has a presencein local community with over 89collection locations (donation storefronts, and attended donationtrailers) and 35 stores which employover 1,060. One of the division’sprimary objectives is to continue toopen at least three new storesevery year and redesign existingstores, so that all communicate aconsistent message. Goodwill’s newstores are well-designed, withspotless floors, brightly lit spaceswith wide aisles, new fixtures and alarge selection of qualitymerchandise at affordable prices.Goodwill store personnel aretrained to deliver outstanding

customer service. Many storesfeature a donation drive-thru too.

Goodwill had five sales activitiesimplemented in the last two yearsthat provide the customer moreincentives to shop at Goodwillstores and outlets: The SeniorCitizen Day on Tuesday; StudentDay on Wednesday; The Color ofthe Week has daily 50% off markeddown items; Our E-Commerce andE-books; Our fifth activity isperhaps the most exciting. At leastthree new stores are openedannually with tremendous grandopening sales.

The profits from this divisionprovide most of the cash needed byHuman Resources and VocationalRehabilitation to cover the cost ofproviding services to people withdisabilities. In essence, Goodwill’sdonors and customers are puttingpeople previously unemployable to work.

Business Divisions:

Goodwill Industrial and CommercialDivisions exist to support therehabilitation services by providingthree elements that are essential to thesuccess of Goodwill’s mission: Work isa means to provide job training andemployment services in a realistic workenvironment that leads to programparticipants’ eventual employment.Wages pay program participants -while they receive services. Revenuesupports Goodwill’s mission. Thus,Goodwill administers five majorIndustrial and Commercialentrepreneurial divisions. Thesedivisions are Donated Goods,Commercial Services, ServiceContracts, Apparel/flag Manufacturingand Healthcare Laundry and LinenServices.

Goodwill strives to provide itscustomers with quality products andservices at competitive prices with on-time deliveries and excellentperformance. This has earnedGoodwill a very high degree ofcustomer satisfaction. However, it isthe program’s participants – not theproducts and services provided – thatare the reason for Goodwill’s existence.The following highlights Goodwill’ssocial enterprise model.

Our facility has over 600 people daily sewing garments for our military.

Apparel/ Flag Manufacturing:

Since 1993, Goodwill has mademilitary battle dress trousers.Making a pair of military trousersinvolves over 75 different sewingoperations that are performedsequentially and enables thetraining and employment ofindividuals with the most significantdisabilities. Due to the large volumeof trousers that were produced, thisfacilitated full time and steady jobs.

The original military contract fortrousers led to many other workopportunities to make variedproducts such as hats, duffel bags,coats, shirts, flags and jacketswhich led to considerable growth inthis division. Goodwill’sApparel/Flag ManufacturingDivision peaked in 2010 whenemploying over 1,000 persons dailyproducing up to 6,000 uniforms andflags daily at a value of $62 Million.Since then manufacturingoperations have decreased annuallydue to the military and government

budget reductions. In 2013, about800 people were employed daily toproduce up to 4,000 uniforms andflags at a value of $31 million.

In 2013, the Apparel/FlagManufacturing Division’s largestcustomers included the U.S.Department of Defense, U.S.Department of Veteran’s Affairs,SourceAmerica, U.S. Army, PublixSuper Markets, State of Florida,ReadyOne Industries, andOperation Warm which providesover 40,000 free coatsmanufactured by Goodwill forchildren in poverty throughout theU.S.

As the military demand decreased,Goodwill began an intensiveresearch effort to identifycommercial products. Our researchfound that Goodwill can producesuperior quality and sell at lowerprices than similar importedproducts-provided that Goodwilldoes its own marketing anddistribution “eliminating the middleman”. Two areas have become a

priority – work uniforms and healthcare garments. With the advent ofGoodwill’s new Healthcare Laundry,we will have the opportunity tosupply customers with hospitalgowns, scrubs, lab coats and workuniforms. With the cooperation ofnumerous Goodwills who providedus with uniform samples and cost,we have found that we can providea complete line of uniforms ofsuperior quality at lower prices. Aline of work uniforms is in itsfinishing stage.

This division continues its stride inquality having achieved ISO-9001:2008re-certification in June of 2013 in thearea of design and manufacturing oftextile goods including militaryuniforms, flags and accessories.This is the 9th year that Goodwillhas held this certification in itscommitment to our customers toproduce quality products made bypeople with disabilities.

In September 2013, GoodwillIndustries conducted a grandopening to inaugurate one of thelargest commercial laundries inthe United States to serve thebooming healthcare industry inSouth Florida and – in theprocess – create jobs for peoplewith disabilities and special needsin the community.

The 50,000-square-foot laundryhas a capacity to process up to40 million pounds of laundryannually. It is state-of-the-art andequipped with the most advancedinfection control features. It isenergy-efficient andenvironmentally green. It is fullyautomated with multipleredundancies to avoid disruption.In a reinforced building, with itsown power and water supply, thelaundry will be able to operateduring the most inclementweather.

In 2013, the laundry processedover 700,000 pounds of soiledlinen into spotless linen for it’sfirst customer, University of MiamiHealth System. With additionalcustomers coming on board in2014, production is expected togrow in three years to 40 millionpounds processed annually.

Besides servicing the largerhospitals with two tunnel washers,the facility features a parallelsystem of washing and dryingequipment to process smallercontracts such as those fromrehabilitation centers,neighborhood clinics, nursinghomes, assisted living facilities andhospitals with fewer beds. Thisdual washing line will help maintainthe same cost-effectiveness andefficient service enjoyed by highvolume customers.

Energy savings are experiencedfrom a variety of systems. One ofthe most interesting is the wastewater heat reclamation systemwhich captures BTUs from thewaste water effluent. Well watergoes through three cleaningprocesses: sediment filter, an ironfilter, and a UV filter which will kill

any bacteria and germs. Lastly,before the water reaches thestorage tank it is treated with asoftener. The water used in thelaundry is actually cleaner thanthe tap water out of your faucet athome! This facilitates the ability tohave very white linen and theability to remove “tough stains”.

Known as the AbilityOne Program,the Javits-Wagner-O'Day Act wasfederally enacted to provideemployment opportunities for peoplewho are blind or have othersignificant disabilities in themanufacture and delivery of productsand services to the FederalGovernment. The AbilityOneCommission (formerly TheCommittee for Purchase from PeopleWho Are Blind or Severely Disabled),provides the federal oversight,establishes the fair market prices,ensures participating nonprofitagencies comply with rules andregulations, assists federal entities inparticipating in the AbilityOneProgram as customers, and otherduties as outlined by statutes andregulations. With direction from theAbilityOne Commission, the centralnonprofit agency, SourceAmerica, Inc.(formerly NISH, Inc.), works closelywith Goodwill and other nonprofitsto find contract opportunities, provideengineering and technical support,and assist with costing and pricing.

Goodwill’s partnership with theAbilityOne Program has beenmutually beneficial. Over the years,Goodwill's experience in fulfillingthese contracts greatly contributed toour knowledge base and led toexpansion in entrepreneurial areaslike document destruction, TheMiami Herald partnership and othercommercial, state, and local contractsresulting in hundreds of additionalquality jobs in clean and safe worklocations.

Today, our Goodwill providesAbilityOne federal customers a widearray of quality services and products,while providing over 1,000 jobs fordirect and indirect labor employees, ofwhich the high majority aresignificantly disabled, also poor, andpreviously unemployable. Goodwillsalutes the AbilityOne Commission,and SourceAmerica, and our Federalcustomers for excellent jobs inBroward, Miami-Dade, and MonroeCounties that truly employ peoplewith significant disabilities.
