Making a vehicle donation to Goodwill of Greater Washington is a great way to help people right here in the Greater Washington DC community. One of the programs your car donation will help support is Goodwill’s Clothing Voucher Program.

The Goodwill Clothing Voucher Program

Goodwill offers the Clothing Voucher Program through its Good Samaritan Program which partners with local charity organizations and government agencies to provide necessary services to the community. Through the Clothing Voucher Program, people in need of clothing can receive a $40 voucher for clothing and shoe purchases at any of Goodwill of Greater Washington’s 13 retail stores.
