DONATE

From Donation to Transformation

Donating to Goodwill is more than just a way to clean out your closet—it helps transform lives in your community. When you give clothes, household items, or other goods, you’re helping people in your community get job training, find work, and build better lives. Your donations make a real difference by giving someone a fresh start.

Sustainability

At Goodwill, Going Green Is Nothing New

For over 100 years, Goodwill has been reusing, repurposing, and recycling the things people no longer want. Founded on a business model of selling donated clothing and other household items, these goods stay out of the waste stream, reducing our collective carbon footprint.
