Goodwill Industries of Michiana was one of nearly 400 non-profits to receive a donation from writer and philanthropist MacKenzie Scott.

Goodwill will receive a donation of $10 million.

“We are honored and humbled to receive this generous gift.  It will allow us to accelerate our vision to reach the neediest individuals in our communities, and further develop our employees at Goodwill.  It will also provide the funds to collaborate with our fellow non-profits to fill in the gaps where services are not currently provided for those facing the greatest hardships.  Having such a generous gift bestowed upon us confirms that the work we and our partners are doing is life changing for many,” said Debie Coble, President and CEO.

Scott donated over 4 billion dollars to 384 organizations within the United States and Puerto Rico.

The donations were unsolicited and there are no restrictions on their use.
