Goodwill Industries of San Francisco, Marin and San Mateo Counties is dedicated to recovering value in both people and material goods through interdependent, transparent and accountable businesses and programs.

Goodwill creates employment opportunities for participants to transform their own lives and overcome the barriers that stand in their way. As an environmentally conscious organization, Goodwill focuses on finding the maximum value for donated material goods – diverting millions of pounds of clothes, furniture and electronics from landfill each year.

Established in 1916, the non-profit organization aims to empower 2,000 program participants a year, placing more than 700 people in jobs with more than 200 employers throughout the Bay Area. Annually, Goodwill’s retail and e-Commerce stores generate nearly 90 percent of Goodwill’s revenue and divert more than 18 million pounds of material goods from landfill. With all its businesses and programs, Goodwill measures its success against three metrics: people, planet and performance. For more information, visit www.sfgoodwill.org.
