Pass It On Challenge Week 4

Anthony Wayne vs Maumee

September 6 @ 2:00 pm - September 8 @ 6:00 pm

AWHS, Whitehouse

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.  James Starks promotes the Challenge on 13abc.

A Goodwill donation trailer is placed at your school beginning Tuesday prior to that week’s game on Friday. During the week, Goodwill attendants will accept donations of clothing, household items and furniture. Receipts for the tax-deductible donation will be available from the attendant.  

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND! TAG US!

Show your schools Pass It On Challenge spirit via social media (FB, Instagram & Twitter)! Each photo submitted to your own social media networks with Goodwill tagged @GoodwillNow will earn 25 pounds! Students, faculty and parents can simply upload photos of them boxing/bagging up donations or dropping off donations at the Goodwill trailer. These photos will help promote your donation drive.
