Arnold Center, Inc.
Midland, MI
The WeCycle Outlet is a community-based resale store that gives electronics, office supplies, and refurbished office furniture items a second life while creating hands-on job training opportunities for individuals with disabilities. Every purchase supports environmental sustainability, workforce development, and meaningful employment right here in our community.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the employment rate for people with disabilities is typically less than one-third of that for people without disabilities (roughly 22% compared to over 65%).
That gap represents thousands of capable individuals who want to work — but face barriers to access, training, and opportunity.
“The programming connects us with like-minded organizations across the state, allowing us to benchmark best practices, strengthen our business operations, and grow our social enterprises — like Good Kitchen, Arnold Farms, and WeCycle — in ways that increase both mission impact and financial sustainability.”
