Again looking to the future. Goodwill Industries are constantly perfecting their efforts in both the fields of human and industrial engineering. On the human side, this means bringing to the people they serve more service in the fields of medicine, psychology, psychiatry, vocational rehabilitation, personnel management, social case work, group work, and spiritual ministry. On the industrial side, it means increased contributors and improved utilization of used materials, increased contributions of other resources, and the development of new work projects to provide additional training, employment, and rehabilitation opportunities. Additional leadership skilled in the professions and in industrial practices with a keen interest and a zeal for serving the handicapped will be needed.

During the past year, as throughout the history of Goodwill, progress has been made in the development necessary to meet future responsibilities. Increased sales have made it possible for many Goodwills to pay off indebtedness and prepare for expansion of service. A number of Industries moved into improved buildings during the past year. Others have made plans to obtain new quarters. Beginnings have been made in the expansion of professional staff and industrial leadership.

The Goodwill program to aid the handicapped also includes expansion into more cities. The need and demand for new Goodwill Industries already exist. Studies have shown that they could and should be established in 163 new locations. Active interest has been expressed by community leaders in many of these centers. Inquiries have been received from many more. An average new Goodwill plant to be effectively developed within a reasonable time requires total investment of approximately $12,000, which is used on a graduated plan over a four-year period at the end of which the institution should support itself from earned income plus a small percentage of its budget for non-income producing activities which must be donated by persons especially interested in helping the handicapped to help themselves.

All the Goodwill plans for tomorrow are based on what the records show today. Today's records reveal that Goodwill pays dividends. Any expansion -- through investments of time, labor, energy, thought, financing, or other resources -- will add to the dividends of Goodwill.

Goodwill means many things -- but above all it means the opportunity for handicapped men and women everywhere to live happy, useful, and abundant lives. The dividends of Goodwill are many. They have human, spiritual, and material significance, which help to build better worlds for each of the people it touches and a better world among all men.
