Trick or Treasure
It’s back! With Halloween around the corner, Goodwill is kicking off its annual Trick or Treasure fundraiser on October 1st. For every dollar donated, you receive a “scratch ticket.” Will your ticket be a trick or a treasure? Scratch away and you have the chance to win some of these great treasures:
- A Goodwill tote bag
- A free Club Goodwill membership
- 10-20% off your next purchase
- $5 off your next $20 purchase
- And more!
Every dollar you donate will benefit Goodwill’s Residential Services so that we can make needed capital improvements. Goodwill has 23 residences that assist people who are in need of a comfortable home setting, while living as independently as possible. People served through these services may have an acquired brain injury, a developmental disability, or other barrier to independence that requires the support of Goodwill staff.
