Goodwill & Cool Today Provide Jobs for Veterans

Coconut Telegraph

Cool Today has partnered with Goodwill Manasota’s Veterans Services Program for a pilot program that will assist veterans looking for positions within trade industries. Cool Today will hire veterans referred by Goodwill Manasota – even those without experience – and will assist with schooling and on-the-job training. The “Vet to Tech” program began in 2014; interested veterans are welcome to apply with Cool Today at 941-921-5581. Veterans are also encouraged to visit Goodwill’s Veterans Services Program office at 8490 Lockwood Ridge Road in Sarasota for free case management services.  In addition to the “Vet to Tech” pilot program, Cool Today and DiDomenico have supported Goodwill Manasota’s Veterans Services Program through financial contributions, including to the Special Emergency Resources for Veterans (SERV) Initiative fund, which helps veterans in times of immediate need. For their partnership and support of Goodwill’s mission of changing lives through the power of work, DiDomenico and Cool Today were recognized during Goodwill’s recent Ambassador Recognition Luncheon as the organization’s “Employment Impact Partner of the Year.”  Photo by Cliff Roles
