Change Lives by Donating to
Goodwill

Donate gently used clothing, furniture in good condition, books, toys, and other accepted household goods to Goodwill Industries of Central Michigan’s Heartland. Your donations help support local employment and community programs while giving usable items another life.

Before you load your car: check our accepted and not-accepted items, then choose a store or attended donation center for its hours and directions. For an item you are unsure about, call the location before bringing it in.
