Despite the tough economic times, many people are caught up in the hustle and bustle of holiday shopping. Even with tight budgets, many people are finding great holiday deals that  enable them to buy their loved ones and friends a holiday present. Spring cleaning may be the most popular time of the year for people to clean out their closets, basements and attics, but the holidays are an opportunity to make room for the things you receive at Christmas. If you find yourself with unused clothes and other household items, you can donate your unwanted items for use in the Goodwill® store in your community. And if you are still cleaning up your yard in anticipation of the cold and snow, and find yourself with an unused car, you can donate a car to Goodwill® to help support their important work. If you believe you can’t afford to give to charity this year, car donation is an affordable way of helping Goodwill® continue to train the disabled and disadvantaged. With car donation Goodwill® trains and helps people find a job and better their life.

Clothing and household donations are eternally appreciated by Goodwill®. The donations of unwanted household items and their subsequent repair by people in need of work is how Goodwill® got its start. Today Goodwill® continues to train and employ people in Goodwill® stores across the country. When you donate a car to Goodwill®, your vehicle donation not only provides finances to keep Goodwill® going, but provides affordable transportation for those who would otherwise not be able to keep employment. Goodwill® has been working with auto donation for more than thirty years. Your car donation supports the teaching, employment and career services that people get when they walk in the doors of Goodwill®. That car that you no longer need can be a gift to somebody in need of affordable transportation. When you donate a car to Goodwill® your car donation puts someone in need behind the wheel and on their way to steady employment. You may take the convenience of car ownership for granted, but your car donation to Goodwill®  really makes a difference.
