A lot of folks think our stores are just places that sell used items to people who have low incomes. While we're happy we can provide affordable goods, our stores do so much more. When we sell those items, the money we raise goes toward the many programs and services we provide in Southwest Florida. So, just like a hospital auxiliary thrift store helps the community through the hospital, a Goodwill store helps the community through all of those services that Goodwill provides. Many charities spend a high percentage of their income on overhead and fundraising. We don't. When you shop in our stores or donate to Goodwill, 90% of that money goes back into our mission services. Sure, overhead expense isn't the only way to judge a responsible charity, but it is important. And so is this: Guidestar by Candid, which rates nonprofits for donors and grantors, gives us their top rating - Platinum. Nationwide, Goodwill is rated an "A" grade by Charity Watch, and for the last 5 years has been named one of the country's "20 Most Inspiring Companies" in Forbes Magazine.
