It’s time for the Goodwill “Pass it on Challenge” brought to you by 13abc! The “Goodwill Pass it on Challenge” is a friendly competition each week between two local high schools that battle off the field in a donation drive benefiting Goodwill Industries of Northwest Ohio. The proceeds from these donations help fund job training and job placement for individuals with disabilities and other barriers to employment.

A Goodwill Pass It On Challenge Trailer will be located at each school for supporters to drop off their donations. Clothing, household items, and furniture donations will be collected beginning the week prior to the game from Saturday through Thursday. Each school will have specific donation hours that will be clearly posted in the school, at the stores, at the donation stations, and on social media platforms (#passitonchallenge). Receipts for the tax-deductible donation will also be available for donors.

The school that has collected the most weight from donations by game day will be announced as the winner of that week’s challenge. Goodwill and 13abc will provide the winning school with a $500 scholarship and the runner-up will receive a $250 scholarship!

Donors should bring their donations starting on Monday during the week of their school’s challenge through Thursday at 6:00 p.m. The winner will be announced Fridays on 13abc Action News!
