Donate Forward: One week of giving adds up to hours of free training |
|
Spring cleaning, getting rid of your clutter, nesting, prepping for the warmer months, whatever your reason, when you bag your no-longer needed items and give them to Goodwill, you’re giving yourself the gift of space and a Goodwill client the gift of free job services.
Goodwill has 67 Donation Express Centers located throughout the 46 counties in middle and west Tennessee that are served by the company. We make it easy to donate. And we want you to help us with a huge donations push the week of March 20 through March 26. Donate Forward.
When you donate, you support the growing list of free job training programs and continuing services offered by Career Solutions. Donate six outgrown t-shirts, six purses that are so not your style any longer, six pairs of jeans in multiple sizes and six sweaters that don’t match your new slacks, and you’ve donated 4.6 hours of free training. That’s a gift that can also be measured by looking forward. Those hours may be all that stands between a client who needs a job and finding employment. With employment comes self-sufficiency, the ability to support a family, and the chance to be an integral part of the community. Our Donations Express Centers are easy to find, our attendants are ready to help, your donations are putting people to work and allow Goodwill to continue its mission of providing employment and training opportunities for people who have disabilities and others who have trouble finding and keeping a job. Donate forward. It’s a great way to start the year! |

 Service available in Davidson, Williamson, Rutherford and Wilson counties.

This service includes additional benefits such as the removal of any items from anywhere inside your property to be taken to Goodwill, as well as the removal of items Goodwill cannot accept. Goodwill donors will receive a discount off the regular pricing. Your donation is still tax-deductible when using this new 48-hour priority service and a donation receipt will be provided. For questions about this priority service or to request a free estimate, please visit their website at collegehunks.com or call 1-800-783-5705. Decluttering your home and spreading Goodwill is as easy as 1-2-3!
CAN I SCHEDULE A PICKUP?
Goodwill only provides a pick up service under special circumstances. Those circumstances include when a family or loved one downsizes, after an estate sale or other situations that will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Donating to Goodwill is convenient and easy. We have more than 60 donation sites throughout the middle and west Tennessee communities we serve.
