Goodwill Community Center

Did you know that when you shop at Goodwill you support many of our programs? The Goodwill Community Center, job training and work experience opportunites for individuals with barriers to independence are just a couple of the ways that your purchases move our community forward. And of course, the great deals make shopping fun!

Goodwill is so much more than great deals, a Community Center, a great place to gather! At this time of year, we partner with the MyFreeTaxes initiative to allow American tax filers to stay connected to more of their hard-earned money! MyFreeTaxes provides free federal and state tax preparation and filing assistance to individuals and families with household incomes of $62,000 or less in 2015. MyFreeTaxes can be used to file federal and state taxes in all 50 states and the District of Columbia for those who qualify. Save those filing fees and get started now at www.myfreetaxes.com!

Goodwill is much more than a gathering place, and somewhere to shop for awesome deals! Join us in our efforts to make the difference in the lives of youth! This is one of the many missions that we support through your generous donations and shopping! We are looking for adults to mentor youth ages 12-17. If you have 60 minutes per week, or four hours per month to make a difference, please give us a call, email, or message us here! (585) 683-1381 [email protected]

In addition to partnering to provide FREE online state and federal tax filing to anyone with a gross income of $60,000 or less at www.myfreetaxes.com, Goodwill of the Finger Lakes is also host to a VITA site, providing in-person tax services to individuals earning $53,000 or less in partnership with SUNY Geneseo.

Goodwill is committed to Financial Strengthening Strategies. Many will pay $150-200 to file their taxes this year, and some will get talked into high interest loans against their refunds. Keep your money, and file for free online. The system is easy, and free for both Federal and State filing for anyone with a gross income of $60,000 or less.
