Goodwills of the Greater Bay Area

Donation Centers

We support our employment, education and skills training programs primarily through the sale of donated goods. When you donate reusable items to Goodwill Industries, you’re helping us provide services to people in your community. Your donation also promotes re-use and recycling and keeps useful items from ending up in the landfill.
