Introducing the Next Wave of Goodwill Community Collaborators

From thrifted fashion to home finds, DIY moments, and everyday “good deal” joy — get to know the creators bringing secondhand to life this season.

We’re excited to introduce our newest group of Goodwill Community Collaborators — local creators who love thrifting, storytelling, and showing how secondhand fits real life.

For the next 3 months, you’ll see everything from outfit styling and statement pieces to home décor gems, creative flips, and family-friendly thrift wins.
