About Goodwill Of Southern Nevada (GSN0

GSN is 501(c)(3) nonprofit social enterprise that uses a braided funding model, including funds from our popular thrift stores, to fund workforce development training and supportive services. Responsible to a local board as part of a federated model, GSN provides services to southern Nevadans from Lincoln, Esmeralda, Nye, and Clark counties. Our mission is to reduce the impact of poverty on our community by helping Southern Nevadans obtain local employment and upward mobility.

If you had one message to get across to future customers, what would it be?

GSN is a local organization, focused on local issues. Our partners include employers, other nonprofits, and local government, all working to place southern Nevadans on a path to sustainable careers.
