Goodwill gladly accepts donations of gently-used clothing and household goods. We sell these donations in our retail stores to generate needed revenue to operate our Mission Services programs for people with disabilities and disadvantages. When choosing what to donate to Goodwill, please give items that you would give a friend or what would likely sell in our stores. And, remember, if you don't use it, don't need it, don't want it—donate it!

Donors interested in claiming tax deductions should keep itemized lists of all donations. The U.S. Internal Revenue Service requires donors to value their items allowing tax payers to deduct the fair market value of each item.

To help guide you, a link to Goodwill’s Valuation Guide is below. Prices are only estimated values, and assume that the items are in good used condition or better. For additional information a link to the IRS Publication 561 – Determining the Value of Donated Property is also below, or visit the IRS online.
