Tax-Deductible Donations Provide Employment
As the holiday season comes to an end and you are preparing for the new year, please consider taking a look around your home for any items you no longer need or use and make a year-end, tax-deductible donation to Goodwill Industries of Central Oklahoma. Each donation not only clears clutter in your home, it also creates job opportunities and funds many meaningful programs that help local individuals with disabilities and disadvantages, including veterans and military families, single mothers or fathers, youth and many others in central Oklahoma.
During the season of giving, your whole family can participate in donating. Encourage children in your home to go through their toys and give away those that are no longer played with. Clean out the closets in your home and donate clothing that no longer fits you or suits your style. From clothing and household items to electronics and even cars, your donations will help create a better holiday season and new year for those in need. Even if you are not able to make an in kind donation, you can still help our community with a monetary donation.
Donations Help Our Community
This is a great opportunity to teach your family the impact that donations can have on the community. When you donate to Goodwill, your items are sold in one of our retail stores and generate revenue from which 88 cents of every dollar is used to help individuals overcome challenges to employment. A few ways your donations make an impact include programs like Supportive Services for Veteran Families, Supported Employment Program, Goodwill Career Pathways Institute, High School Equivalency Test Prep program and more.
Donations Are Tax-Deductible
All donations are tax-deductible – just ask for a receipt when dropping off your items at one of our attended donation centers. Let’s make 2019 a great year!
