The mission of Goodwill of Greater Washington is to transform lives and communities through the power of education and employment. Its network of retail stores, donation centers, schools, and contract sites not only provides jobs to over 1,000 community members, many of whom have barriers to employment, but also serves to advance greener practices in the DC region. Goodwill’s sustainability initiatives bring purpose to the donated goods that cannot be sold in its retail stores, ensuring that these items do not end up in landfills.
Goodwill of Greater Washington has a nearly 90-year history as a local nonprofit, serving the low- to moderate-income community of more than six million Washington D.C. metro area residents. Central to its mission to transform lives and communities through the power of education and employment is working to create economic mobility and break the cycle of poverty that disproportionately affects communities of color, people with differing abilities, and populations facing barriers to employment and education.
