This year’s Franchisee of the Year goes to Kitchen Wise | Closet Wise of Greater Ocala, and it’s easy to see why. April and Scott Goodger have built more than just a successful home-organization business — they’ve built a reputation for generosity, kindness, and genuine community spirit that shines through everything they do.
From the very beginning, the Goodgers have seen their work as more than designing beautiful, functional spaces. For them, it’s about helping people feel at peace in their own homes and communities. Whether they’re transforming a cluttered pantry or donating cabinetry to a local school, their focus is always on improving lives in big and small ways.
Through Kids-Lift, April and Scott have made a lasting impact in their local area. They’ve partnered with Carver Middle School to provide storage solutions for food pantries and classroom supplies, donated organization systems to support teachers and students, and even gifted prizes and supplies to encourage positive behavior programs. They’ve also worked with community organizations and Habitat for Humanity to bring comfort and accessibility to families who need it most — showing that small gestures can go a long way in building stronger communities.
Their efforts don’t stop when the workday ends. April and Scott show up. Whether it’s lending a hand, donating materials, or simply spreading positivity. They embody what Kids-Lift is all about: using their platform, their business, and their talents to make a difference in the lives of others.
We’re proud to celebrate Kitchen Wise | Closet Wise of Greater Ocala as our 2024 Kids-Lift Franchisee of the Year— thank you, April and Scott, for proving that giving back never goes out of style. Your passion for people and your heart for service inspire all of us at Kids-Lift.
