When you donate and shop at Goodwill, you help us fulfill our mission.
The clothing and household goods you donate are sold in over 2,100 Goodwill retail stores and on our Internet auction site, www.shopgoodwill.com. The revenues fund job training and other services to prepare people for job success.
Goodwill also generates income helping businesses fill gaps caused by labor shortages, time constraints and limited space or equipment. We train and employ contract workers to fill outsourced needs for document management, assembly, mailing, custodial work, groundskeeping and more.
More than 83 percent of Goodwill’s total revenues are used to fund education and career services, and other critical community programs.
