Sustainability Fun Facts
One Donation = Multiple Lives Changed
Every donated item has the potential to be resold, reused, or recycled, extending its life and keeping it out of the waste stream.
Material Longevity
Purchasing secondhand keeps materials in use longer and significantly reduces overall waste.
How You Can Help
- Shop secondhand – Did you know that when you shop at Palmetto Goodwill, over 91¢ of every purchase fund job training, education, and employment programs in our community. By shopping at our stores, you help reduce waste and find unique, high-quality clothing, furniture, and electronics.
- Donate responsibly – Give clothing, household items, and electronics a second life by donating instead of discarding.
- Make sustainable choices – Support eco-conscious brands, embrace slow fashion alternatives, and shop secondhand whenever possible.
- Financial donation – Support the mission your way. Make a monetary donation to a specific program you care about or leave it unrestricted, and we’ll apply it where it’s needed most.
Your choices matter. When you shop, donate, and recycle with Palmetto Goodwill, you help reduce waste, protect the planet, and create opportunity for people across our community.
