Goodwill of Western and Northern Connecticut to close Wilton donation station

Goodwill of Western and Northern Connecticut (GWNC) is closing its Wilton donation station on June 25.

The station at 17 Danbury Road has been open since May 1, 2018. Employees of the Wilton donation station have accepted transfers to other Goodwill locations.

“Closing a location is always a difficult decision to make,” said GWNC President and CEO Rocco Tricarico. “As a nonprofit, this is one of those times when we recognize that we must adjust resources towards the locations that provide the best outcomes to maintain our mission services.”

GWNC is headquartered in Bridgeport. Within Fairfield County, the nonprofit operates donations stations and stores in Bridgeport, Brookfield, Danbury, Fairfield, Monroe, Norwalk, Ridgefield, Riverside, Shelton, Stamford and Westport; it also operates standalone donation stations in Greenwich and Riverside.
