An international center in Seoul is now collecting goods for a new Goodwill Store. The Yeoksam Global Village Center is now taking donations of used clothing or household items to help the not-for-profit organization.

Any items dropped at the collection bin at the center, located near Gangnam Subway Station’s Exit 1, will be sold in the Goodwill Store to help the unemployed.

The Goodwill Store provides job training, employment placement services and other programs for people who have disabilities, lack education or job experience, or face other employment challenges.

All donated items must be clean and in good working condition. Broken items or unwashed clothing will not be accepted. Donations can be made from Monday to Friday during the center’s working hours of 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. but not during lunch which is from 12-1 p.m.

For more information call (02) 3453-9038~9 or email yeoksam@sba.seoul.kr.
