Back-to-school season is a great reminder that small choices can make a big impact. From clothing and backpacks to books and dorm essentials, shopping secondhand keeps quality items in use longer and supports a more sustainable, circular economy. Together, our donors and shoppers have helped keep more than 75.2 million pounds of reusable goods out of landfills over the past five years. 🌎 Every donation and every purchase helps reduce waste, extend the life of valuable resources, and create a stronger local community.

Back-to-school shopping doesn’t have to break the budget. Thank you to WRDW/WAGT News 12 26 for visiting Goodwill and helping share practical ways families can save this school season. Our Director of Retail Operations, Tiffany Overstreet, discussed how shoppers can find quality back-to-school essentials while making their dollars go further. What makes shopping with us even more meaningful is the impact behind every purchase. Each item sold helps support Goodwill and Helms College's education and career services programs, creating opportunities for individuals and families throughout our community.
