A Goodwill Store is a retail outlet operated by Goodwill Industries, a nonprofit organization. These stores sell donated items such as clothing, furniture, electronics, and household goods at affordable prices.

Overview of Goodwill Industries of Dallas, Inc.
Goodwill Industries of Dallas, Inc. exists to help persons with disabilities and other barriers to
employment get jobs so that each can experience dignity, purpose, and self-sufficiency. Goodwill does this by helping people build skills, find jobs, and reach their goals in life through a donated goods business, workforce development and other social enterprise models. Here are our core beliefs:

The Donated Goods Program provides employment by offering work through the recycling and reselling of material donations in stores throughout the community, while keeping millions of pounds of reusable items out of our landfills. Every dollar that is generated from retail stores is invested back into creating employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities and disadvantaged conditions.
  • There are over 220,000 individuals with disabilities in the north Texas region. Only 90,000 have jobs.
