Goodwill Industries of the Greater Chattanooga Area will open a new donation center in Ooltewah on Thursday, July 17.

Located next to the Sunrise Market Shell gas station at 8113 Ooltewah-Georgetown Road in Ooltewah, the donation center will provide a way for area residents to donate gently used clothing, furniture and household items, helping to support Goodwill’s mission of "helping people transform their potential into opportunity."

A Goodwill representative will be on-site to assist with donation drop-offs.

“We are excited to open a donation center in Ooltewah,” said Solara Sain, vice president of operations. “When people donate and shop at Goodwill, they are diverting items from local landfills, helping their neighbors who have barriers to employment and making a real impact in our community.”
