About Goodwill Gives
Goodwill Gives is a program focused on raising funds for a different nonprofit organization every quarter. Customers have the option of making a donation or round up their change at the register with 100% of the funds benefiting a featured nonprofit organization during this time.
“Through the generosity of the Maricopa county Goodwill locations and their customers, we will be able to care for more children this summer than we otherwise would be able to help. The children of the fallen paid a heavy price for our freedoms, and we strive to lessen the burden they carry,” said Helping Hands for Freedom CEO, Darin Fishburn, “At what point will they stop paying?”
