Join us in supporting our mission
Together, we can create a better world. Your donations to our retail stores and trailers not only benefit the environment but also uplift our community. Through the resale of your donated item, we are able to offer training, employment, and job placement services for people with disabilities and other barriers to work.
For every 6 items you donate, we can provide three (3) hours of career coaching to individuals with disabilities or other barriers to work.
Goodwill depends on your financial support to help transform the lives of people with disabilities by providing an opportunity to learn, grow, receive, and maintain employment.
Donate Clothing and Small Goods
When you donate clothing and other items the revenue from the sales of these donated items goes to help our mission of training, employment, and job placement for people with disabilities and other barriers to work.
