The Story Behind Goodwill Wine
Goodwill Wine traces its origins to charity. Were it not for the same kind of generosity you show towards the Karen people under our care, Goodwill Wine would never have been founded.
It all started in 2009. David Laity, the founder of Goodwill Wine, lost almost everything he owned to one of the worst bushfires in human history. The 2009 Black Saturday bushfires. Although the bushfires had a devastating impact both on the economy and the environment, Australians stepped up and came together to contribute towards helping the people who were most affected. David was one of the beneficiaries of the Australians’ generosity. He received a $15,000 donation to rebuild what he lost and start over.
Armed with the $15,000 donation and a burning desire to pay it forward, David founded Goodwill Wine. He did it with one purpose in mind: to help Australian charities fund their causes, just as they helped him rebuild his life.
Since its founding, Goodwill Wine has religiously given 50% percent of their profits to over 300 charity organisations of their customers’ choosing. The total donations made by Goodwill Wine in the last 10 years total to a whopping $373k.
The money donated by Goodwill Wine has:
- Provided 180,000 meals to Australians living in poverty.
- Bought fire-fighting equipment, hi-vis wet weather gear, and defibrillators for volunteer fire brigades.
- Funded four International Animal Cruelty Investigations for Animal Australia.
- Helped rehome 47 Orangutans.
- De-sexed, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed and re-homed over 100 dogs and 150 cats.
- Actively played a role in the ban on plastic bags in Queensland.
- Saved 12 whales for Sea Shepherd by providing fuel for their Southern Ocean campaigns.
- Provided employment opportunities for disadvantaged Australians.
David has a goal to reach a total of a million dollars donated, with the help of Goodwill’s loyal customer base.
