At Goodwill, every donation changes lives. We use the proceeds from donated items to fund Goodwill’s job training programs and career services for individuals facing barriers to employment. Our goal is to end the need for charity by providing long-term solutions, not handouts. Thousands of success stories prove the difference we make, one life at a time.
“If a tired mom of five can push through
that kind of exhaustion and finish,
anyone can.
If I can do it, you can too.
Keep going. Keep pushing.
You’ve got this, and you’ll feel so much better in the end.”
“Goodwill made me comfortable in my first work environment coming out of prison. They encouraged me that this was a starter job, but that there was much more on the horizon for me as I moved forward.”
