Customers
All people are welcome to shop at Goodwill.
In recent years, a broader range of customers from all walks
of life have
chosen to buy goods from our stores. Students and others are turning
recycled clothing into an ’art form’.

Material Assistance
This year Goodwill will provide many thousands
of dollars worth of goods in free welfare relief to disadvantaged
people
through Byron Place Community Centre, UnitingCare Wesley
Adelaide Financial Counselling
and other associated Missions.
The warehouse provides the Goodwill stores with quality garments
at low prices. We are a part of 'save the environment' as our
total business is recycled clothing. We also donate to RSPCA
(dog blankets for free).
Customers with vouchers can obtain clothing in pleasant surroundings
with dignity and without prejudice.

Stores
Goodwill Stores need more quality donations
(all clean items are acceptable). In particular, there is always
a demand for larger sized
ladies wear, mens wear and brand name merchandise.
Men’s and children’s clothing
are always needed, as are linen and blankets.
The stores also display goods made by the Doll & Craft
centre which include restored dolls, knitted children’s
clothing and other goods.
The Adelaide Store (Hindley Street) specialises
in Indian, 70’s
and retro clothing. All stores stock a complete range of
quality affordable clothing.

Doll & Craft
Centre
Volunteers at the Doll & Craft Centre at Williamson Hall,
Payneham Road Uniting Church, 341 Payneham Road, Marden, restore
dolls and reclothe them as well as make a range of children’s
and baby clothing. Most attend the group weekly, but
others who are unable, work from their homes and supply
knitted items
and
crafts.
The goods made by the group are sold
exclusively in the Goodwill Stores and yield extra
income for UnitingCare Wesley Adelaide.
The group has also been in operation
since 1952 and is an important part of the UnitingCare Wesley
Adelaide history.

News Story
So
that Uniting Care Wesley Adelaide has plenty
of warm winter clothing to give South Australians
in need of assistance, we would love to
hear from manufacturers or their
representatives with surplus stock.
Goodwill
is not in direct competition with mainstream
retailers
so it often makes sense for a manufacturer
to make use of Goodwill's distribution
networks.
