When you support Goodwill South Florida, you support more individual victories for people with disabilities.

With your help and Goodwill South Florida’s training, employment and job placement programs can provide pathways for people with disabilities and other barriers to find work.

Together, we can make a difference one person at a time.

Donate Your 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.

Provide hope and future opportunities for people with disabilities and other barriers to work. Choosing an appropriate planned gift depends on your individual financial goals and personal circumstances.

3. To have access to the organization’s most recent financial statements.

4. To be assured their gifts will be used for the purposes for which they were given.

5. To receive appropriate acknowledgment and recognition.

6. To be assured that information about their donations is handled with respect and with confidentiality to the extent provided by law.

8. To be informed whether those seeking donations are volunteers, employees of the organization or hired solicitors.

9. To have the opportunity for their names to be deleted from mailing lists than an organization may intend to share.
