Goodwill of Colorado provides career development resources and life-skills training for more than 105,000 Coloradans each year—including military veterans, seniors, youth, and individuals who have a disability or barrier to employment.
Through its thrift stores, donations, corporate partnerships, and recycling processes, Goodwill has worked for more than a century in Colorado to ensure individuals have access to career and life pathways that allow them to live to their fullest potential.
Empowering Coloradans
Goodwill of Colorado is a registered 501(c)3 organization led by President and CEO Karla Grazier, our executive team and board of directors. Any donations made to Goodwill are tax-deductible in accordance with IRS guidelines. We use financial contributions and proceeds from the sale of donated goods to support our programs which help Coloradans in need achieve greater independence. Goodwill of Colorado is a BBB-accredited charity, is GuideStar Platinum rated and has been recognized by Goodwill Industries International for operational and managerial excellence.
Goodwill organizations are individual entities each with its own leadership team and board of directors, but frequently collaborate and share best practices. This enables each Goodwill to tailor its outreach and community programs according to the unique needs of its community under the unifying goal of empowering independence.
As a social enterprise, Goodwill of Colorado contracts with numerous local businesses, military bases and other partners to provide professional janitorial and commercial laundry services, document imaging and fleet maintenance. Proceeds are reinvested in our programs to grow our mission.
