WHAT TO DONATE

Consider whether one of your family or friends would find your donation useful if you passed it on to them. That's a good rule of thumb to use when you make a decision to contribute second-hand items to any organization.

Please note that we, along with most other charities have not "fixed" or repaired donations for many years, and cannot use items that are dirty, broken, stained, missing pieces or damaged. Alternate donation sites

Goodwill gladly accepts donations of clean, gently used clothing and small working household items.

If you have a large quantity of donations or furniture items, please contact the nearest retail GOODWILL STORE to make sure that they have room to accept it. Our free-standing DONATION CENTERS have limited space and are not set up to accept large bulky items, so the employees may refer you to the closest RETAIL STORE if they anticipate that their center will be full by the end of the day. Your donation may qualify for PICK UP if it includes furniture.
