Clothing Drive
Service organizations, schools, churches and businesses can help Goodwill and the community by sponsoring a Project Collect & Connect clothing drive.
For each bag of gently-used women’s, men’s or children’s clothing collected, the sponsoring group will receive a $5 clothing voucher redeemable at any central Indiana Goodwill store. The sponsoring group may distribute the vouchers to families and individuals in need of clothing or give the vouchers to Goodwill for distribution to individuals participating in employment and educational services.
Clothing drives may be conducted at any time throughout the year for a specific period of time and cannot be conducted on an ongoing basis. Organizations can choose to have a one-day, weeklong, or monthlong drive.
All clothing collected at a Project Collect & Connect drive must be donated to Goodwill. All donations are sold in central Indiana Goodwill stores. The sale of donated goods helps financially support Goodwill’s employment and educational services in central Indiana.
