<\/a>The expanded schedule is designed to increase access to affordable shopping and convenient donation opportunities, strengthening Goodwill\u2019s ability to create local jobs and fund employment training programs for individuals facing barriers to work.<\/p>\n\u201cBy extending our store hours, we\u2019re creating more opportunities for the community to engage with Goodwill in meaningful ways,\u201d said Ed Durkee, President and CEO at GICF. \u201cEvery visit \u2013 whether to shop or donate \u2013 helps support local jobs, strengthen families and create a more sustainable Central Florida.\u201d<\/p>\n
Goodwill\u2019s retail and donation operations also play a key role in reducing waste. In 2025, more than 25 million pounds of gently used clothing and household goods were diverted from local landfills.<\/p>\n
GICF operates retail stores in Orange County, Osceola County, Brevard County, Volusia County, Seminole County and Lake County. More than 95% of revenue generated at these locations directly supports job training, employment placement and career readiness services for every Central Floridian who seeks assistance through Goodwill. Previously, Sunday hours were 10am to 8pm.<\/p>\n
