Dear Editor,

Reading residents, your generosity in 2024 was extraordinary! Together, you donated over 1.1 million pounds of clothing and household goods to Morgan Memorial Goodwill Industries, a community-based nonprofit organization. 

Last year, Goodwill served more than 6,600 people in its job training programs and career service, helping individuals facing barriers find jobs and create new lives.

Donating to Goodwill is an easy way to reuse and recycle, and it provides those who need to stretch their budgets in today’s economy access to quality goods at affordable prices. Your donations make a difference. 

Please continue to bring your gently used clothing and household items to the attended trailer located at 1342 Main Street in Reading near the Home Goods Plaza. (open 8 am to 4 pm daily)

Thank you for supporting Goodwill! 

Joanne K. Hilferty
President and CEO
Morgan Memorial Goodwill Industries
