Goodwill is so much more than our thrift stores! 90¢ of every dollar Goodwill spends supports LOCAL programs and services that empower job seekers. Goodwill is a leader in sustainability, annually diverting 15 million pounds of computers, paper, clothing and textiles from area landfills, recovering the value through resale and recycle.
