Donate to Support the Cycle of Good
Every gift stays local and helps replace cycles of limitation with a Cycle of Empowerment and Community Enrichment.
What Happens When You Donate
When you donate to Evansville Goodwill, your generosity does more than support a single moment. It fuels a cycle of opportunity that strengthens our entire community.
Donations help fund adult education, job training, employment services, and support programs designed around real community needs. Because we are a locally governed nonprofit, your donation stays right here in our tristate region.
This is how generosity becomes momentum and how small actions lead to lasting change.

What We Can and Can’t Accept
We are incredibly grateful for the community’s generosity. Nearly everything you donate helps fuel the Cycle of Good.
To ensure donations can be handled safely and responsibly, there are only two items we are unable to accept:
Everything else, from clothing and household goods to electronics and more, helps support our mission and keeps usable items in circulation. Thank you for helping us turn generosity into opportunity.
Donating for People and the Planet
Donating to Evansville Goodwill doesn’t just support people. It supports the planet.
By giving items a second life, you help reduce waste, conserve resources, and keep usable goods out of landfills. Every donation contributes to a more sustainable community while funding programs that create education and employment pathways.
Sustainability is built into the Cycle of Good—and it’s part of how we turn generosity into lasting impact.
Responsible Electronics Recycling
Evansville Goodwill is proud to be part of Dell Reconnect, a national electronics recycling program that helps responsibly recycle unwanted technology.
Through this partnership, donated computers and electronics are either refurbished for reuse or recycled in an environmentally responsible way. This process helps protect the environment while supporting job training and community programs.
By donating electronics through Goodwill, you’re helping reduce electronic waste and support opportunity at the same time.
A Donation You Can Feel Good About
We know donating is an act of trust.
As a locally governed nonprofit, we are committed to transparency, ethical leadership, and responsible stewardship of every donation. From reuse and recycling to reinvestment in local programs, your generosity is handled with care and purpose.
