TorresThirty-eight year old Alicia Torres has been breaking down barriers since she was a child. The youngest of six children, she’s a two-time winner of the Junior Special Olympics and a star employee at the Kenner Goodwill Retail Store & Donation Center. Alicia came to Goodwill in 2004 and has worked her way up from sorting donations to running the hard-line house-wares section and children’s books area. With a job coach on hand serving as both mentor and friend, Alicia works five days a week and welcomes each work day with a smile and can-do attitude. Goodwill gives Alicia a daily sense of adventure and independence and she in turn touches the hearts of countless customers and employees with her warm smile and vivacious spirit.
