Care-to-Care Fundraising Partnership with Goodwill of Southern Nevada
Goodwill of Southern Nevada continues with its Care-to-Care Fundraising Partnership and this month they are joining forces with Lighthouse Charities. Goodwill of Southern Nevada’s Brian Stewart and Cindy Trussell from Lighthouse Charities are here to share more.
Goodwill is so proud to put people to work both in their stores and in industries where they need great workers. They are impressed that Lighthouse Charities brings in such passionate workers that help to resettle those from countries all over the planet. People are coming from refugee camps, they are so proud to be in America, they are industrious and they want to get ahead.
Cindy Trussell founded Lighthouse Charities 10 years ago. She was already serving in the community, working with the Clark County School district, setting up food pantries to help families in need. The school district introduced her to the population she is now serving. Different schools that she was working with came forward and told her about some of the challenges they were facing as staff to try and clothe and feed these families and help them with their needs.
