    🌟EMPLOYEE SPOTLIGHT🌟 As the Olympics come to a close this Sunday, we want to shine a spotlight on 3 of our very own gold medalist employees🥇🎉 1. Gary Brott will mark his 10th anniversary with Goodwill of Colorado this September. He began his career as an Outlet Assistant Manager and has since excelled in all aspects of the Outlet job duties. At 68 years old, Gary gives his best effort every day, demonstrating an outstanding work ethic and a remarkable ability to motivate his co-workers. A long-time Denver resident and Denver Broncos ticket holder, Gary’s dedication and enthusiasm are evident both in and out of the workplace. 2. As soon as a car arrives at the Attended Donation Center (ADC) in Foxridge, Phyllis Hawkins promptly steps outside with a bin to assist with unloading donations. Her approach is both friendly and professional; she thanks each donor and remains gracious throughout the process. Phyllis is dedicated to making Foxridge the best ADC in Denver, and she has truly achieved this goal. 3. Antony Caldwell has been with Goodwill of Colorado for 13 years, consistently raising the bar in his role. Throughout his tenure, he has been dedicated to assisting customers in the stores. Antony is especially passionate about helping customers understand where their "round-up" donations go, explaining how their contributions support the various community programs offered by Goodwill of Colorado, such as the LEAP program which provides home heating assistance to help low-income households. Please join us in congratulating Gary, Phyllis, and Antony and thanking them for hard work at Goodwill of Colorado! #Olympics #GoodwillColorado #Retail #EmployeeSpotlight
