Donate Wisely

Better Business Bureau Accredited Charity SealBefore you give, Goodwill urges you to find out more about the charities you'd like to support. Be certain the organization uses its revenue for charitable purposes that support a broader mission.

Some thrift stores solicit donations under the name of a charity, but as little as 5 percent of the money generated from these donations may actually go to the charity. At Goodwill, 84 percent of our revenues are used to fund our employment and training programs. Goodwill is consistently ranked among top charities that make your donations go further.
