Goodwill of Orange County I Earth Month Is Here!

April 9, 2026

April is Earth Month, and we’re ready to celebrate! All month long, you can donate, thrift, and enjoy exclusive perks while helping keep the Cycle of Good going. Let’s make an impact together—and have fun doing it!

Join the Cycle of Good

For more than 100 years, Goodwill of Orange County has been all about doing good for people and the planet. Every year, we keep more than 55 million pounds of goods out of the local waste stream,and it all starts with amazing donors like you.

When you donate gently used items, you’re helping reduce waste and give everyday items a fresh start. Those out‑of‑style shoes, outdated housewares, or even that old laptop? They’re ready for a second life and a new purpose!

Once donated, your items hit the shelves of Goodwill OC stores, where they help fund programs that empower people to build meaningful careers right here in Orange County. Plus, donating feels great, and clears out your closet. Talk about a win‑win‑win for you, your community, and the planet.

By collecting, sharing, reusing, recycling, and redistributing goods, Goodwill OC keeps items in motion and out of landfills—bringing the circular economy to life and helping every donation reach its highest potential.
