Goodwill Northern Michigan is a community-supported social enterprise dedicated to increasing food and housing security in the region. By shopping at their ever-changing thrift stores and online shop, along with donating items, individuals contribute to keeping 6 million pounds of items out of landfills annually.
The organization's Food Rescue program collects fresh, healthy food nearing expiration and distributes it to local food pantries the same day at no cost. Additionally, they facilitate the distribution of purchased and rescued food throughout five counties, including sourcing food from local farms to support area pantries.
Goodwill Northern Michigan's Housing and Homeless Services team is committed to reducing homelessness in the area, offering emergency shelter at Goodwill Inn for families and individuals, transitional housing at Patriot Place for Veterans, and supportive housing programs to ensure long-term housing success for vulnerable community members.
