Initially located in a modest space, the store quickly gained traction, demonstrating a vital need for affordable clothing and household items within the city.

Over the decades, the Lincoln Goodwill has grown significantly, expanding its footprint to become one of the largest and most successful Goodwill locations in Nebraska.

This growth has been fueled by the generosity of the Lincoln community and the dedicated efforts of its staff and volunteers.

Throughout its history, the store has consistently prioritized its core mission of empowering individuals with disabilities and those facing economic hardship by providing job training and placement services alongside the retail operation.
