Sabrina Carrillo+FollowWhere your Evansville Goodwill donation really goesEvery time you drop off clothes or household items at Evansville Goodwill, you’re fueling more than just thrift shopping—you’re helping adults in our community earn diplomas and find jobs. The team sorts every donation to get the most value, and profits stay local, funding programs like the Excel Center for adult education and Goodskills Academy for job training. Forget the rumors about money going elsewhere—your generosity directly supports neighbors getting a fresh start. Just a heads-up: they can’t take mattresses, paint, or chemicals, but everything else gently used is welcome. How do you feel about where your donations end up? #Safety #Evansville #Goodwill00Share
