Goodwill Donation Centers

There’s Good in Your Donation.

Your generosity changes lives. Thanks to donors like you, we are able to provide life-changing opportunities to those in need.

Goodwill Donation Centers

Together, we can make a lot of good happen.

Each piece of clothing, book, toy or household item gifted to us helps fund free programs throughout metro Detroit, including adult education, job training, financial coaching and life skills development. These free programs help metro Detroiters living with physical, intellectual and developmental disabilities receive access to the tools and resources needed to gain and retain employment to support an independent lifestyle they deserve.
