Goodwill is more than a store in your local community.

With your help, Goodwill of Colorado’s mission extends out into our community to our neighborhoods, to businesses, to other non-profits and most importantly, to individuals and families.

To our goods donors who load up your cars and bring us your items—you are the engine that enables us to help transform lives. Your goods donations employ people at your local Goodwill who face significant barriers to hiring, and provide the revenue we generate to help change our neighbors’ lives. Two of these individuals are Chris R., and Lorena T., who completed our LIFT IT Training program and were able to transition into new IT and cybersecurity careers they love.

To our shoppers who come looking for those thrift finds, your purchases generate the revenue for us to provide programs to help Coloradans and to employ your neighbors.

Behind every name is a story.

And behind every story, a community that does not give up—on people or their potential.
