In a move that's progressive and technically impressive, Seattle Goodwill is now using Facebook to stay in touch with the community. Since 2008, they've been using Facebook to friend people and keep them "in the loop" about exciting events and happenings at Seattle Goodwill.
Seattle Goodwill's Facebook page also contains photo galleries, including a lot of great shots from their recent Glitter Gala Fashion Show in 2008 and a collection of great pictures from various Vintage Fashion Shows. This is a good way to show people what Seattle Goodwill is all bout, and hopefully to encourage people to join in.
The pictures should also remind you of how important your donations are. Goodwill Industries relies on donations from the public in order to continue their work. From small donations (clothes) to the medium (dressers) and much larger donations, like vehicle donations, every little bit helps. These donations will be used to fund job training programs to help people to get back on their feet and to change their lives for the better.
It's great to see Seattle Goodwill reach out and embrace new tools and social networks that are becoming popular. By using the methods more and more people use to keep in touch, they can continue to do what they do best. At present there it is not known whether Seattle Goodwill will be getting a MySpace page, but it seems likely.
In the meantime, did you know that you can donate you car to Goodwill? Whether they use it to help someone who needs a cheap car to get back and forth to work or auction it off for cash to use in other programs (including job training and job placement programs), the vehicle is going to be put to good use if you decide to donate it.
