When Goodwill Industries of Portland needs a donation, they look to Lake Oswego — where residents just keep giving and giving.
Goodwill fans everywhere should look to Lake Oswego, Oregon for inspiration. The “donation station” in L.O. collected 6.2 million pounds of goods last year, according to an article by Cliff Newell in the Portland Tribune. The amount made Lake Oswego the country’s top-donating city.
The numbers say L.O. residents give a great deal, but, apparently, they also give some good stuff. The location is known for being “especially good at giving high-class clothing.”
Thank you Lake Oswego for your donations! We probably have something of yours.
