Sustainability

Goodwill organizations help communities extend the life of usable items, lessen the amount of material sent to landfills, and decrease reliance on the extraction and production of virgin materials.

Last year, Goodwill recovered the value of more than 4 billion pounds of people’s used goods, giving these items a second life.
