Goodwill Industries of Southeast Nebraska was created in 1932 by Miss Eleanor T. Miller, who had traveled to Boston and seen Goodwill Industries at work there. She brought the idea back to Nebraska and began implementing the same ideas and following the same, 'help up, not hand out' philosophy.
Goodwill Industries has always relied on public donations to fund their efforts but they now need your donations more than ever. This includes donating cars and trucks. While you won't see them on sale in Goodwill's retail stores, you can rest assured that your donation will be used to help people in your community. Some donated vehicles are sold to people in need of cheap, reliable transportation in order to get to work. More often, donated autos are sold at auction to raise the income needed to fund Goodwill's various training schemes, job placement services and other community programs.
If you have a car in your garage and you don't use it anymore, consider donating it to Goodwill Industries. If you are worried about the hassle, Charity Dispatch can help.
