Thrift Shops Near Me That Give Back

With deep roots in the Arizona community, Goodwill of Central and Northern Arizona is working hard every day for donations that give back.

How a Monetary Donation Supports the Community

We like to think of monetary donations as investments in a person’s future. By filling out our donation form, you join our community of Goodwill supporters who back our mission of ending poverty through the power of work. Monetary contributions help thousands of Arizonans find jobs through our no-cost career centers every year.

At Goodwill, we provide job seekers and our employees with no-cost tools and resources to achieve meaningful employment and life-sustaining wages. Goodwill of Central and Northern Arizona plans to put your donation towards fighting two of the root causes of poverty: unemployment and underemployment.

Inspiring a Giving Mentality Within Your Organization

One of the best ways to use our resources to give back is to rally the troops at your office and host a corporate donation drive. With materials and support, we empower you and your co-workers to give back to the community by collecting donations for your local Goodwill. If you’re interested in hosting a corporate donation drive, contact donationdrive@goodwillaz.org to get started!

We Make it Easy to Donate Items You No Longer Need

Goodwill of Central and Northern Arizona is grateful for the goodwill of our community, knowing Arizonans have a choice of where to bring their used clothing, household goods and furniture. Keeping our stores stocked with donations allows other community members to purchase these items at a discounted price.

We have 80+ community locations where your no-longer-needed items can be dropped off, which in turn gives new life to clothing and other items that would otherwise be thrown away.

Donations are the lifeline of our organization. If you’re interested in donating to a thrift shop that gives back, you can support Goodwill by:

  •      Donating items to any of our Arizona Goodwill locations
  •      Donating items through our home pickup
  •      Donating your vehicle
  •      Making a monetary donation
  •      Making a corporate donation
