This year marks 35 years of Goodwill Acadiana serving our community with the purpose of reducing poverty, restoring independence, and transforming lives.
To celebrate this incredible milestone, we’re inviting YOU to join us in what we do best: giving back together!
Introducing the Give Good Donation Drive - a powerful, community-wide effort to collect gently-used clothing, household items, and treasures from across Acadiana. It’s not a competition. It's a movement.
Every item you donate fuels our mission! When you Give Good, you help:
Fund education, job training, and employment services
Support neighbors navigating crisis
Provide affordable housing to the elderly, disabled, and low-income
Create a more sustainable, empowered Acadiana
🛍️ What You Can Donate
We’re looking for the gently used items you no longer need but others can love again:
Clothing and shoes
Home decor and small furniture
Kitchenware, books, accessories, and more
Each item contributes to something much bigger and provides opportunity and hope to those in Acadiana.
📍 Where to Donate
You can drop off your donations at any Goodwill Acadiana location! Whether it’s one bag or ten, every donation counts.
🌟 Why It Matters
Your donations don’t just land on a shelf - they build futures. From adult education to career placement, the impact of your donations ripple throughout our community.
When you Give Good, you:
Help someone land their first job
Support a single parent re-entering the workforce
Provide tools for growth and dignity to someone starting over
🙌 Let’s Give Good, Together
This is more than a drive. It’s a reminder of who we are as a community: generous, compassionate, and stronger together.
As we reflect on the past 35 years of service, we look forward to the next 35, and we hope you’ll be part of it.
Clean out your closet. Fill a bag. Transform a life.
Let’s Give Good, Acadiana 💙
