Goodwill Round Up

When you buy something at Goodwill, you will be asked if you would like to Round UP your purchase to support one of our brand new programs at Goodwill...Goodwill Cares.

Shoppers get a chance to directly fund our Goodwill Cares program.

What Is Goodwill Round Up?

At checkout, you will have the opportunity to Round UP your purchase to the nearest dollar, but you might be wondering; “where will that extra money go?” GREAT QUESTION!

Every cent you donate through our Round UP program will go directly towards directly funding our Goodwill Cares program. Without the Round UP program, Goodwill Cares would not exist.

This program has a goal of ensuring all of our team members have access to a life coach, to support them with the diverse challenges they experience in their lives. These life coaches help make positive progress, in order to attain greater fulfillment.

They can help team members with advocating and referring to community supports, accessing public services, career preparation and goal development, interpersonal relationships, and life transitions.

Goodwill Cares helps with:
• Advocating and referring you to community supports
• Personal and life coaching
• Assists with goal development and career preparation
• Team dynamics and interpersonal communication
• UKG support and onboarding support
• Ongoing support to ensure accountability
• Or if you just someone to talk to…
