We were absolutely thrilled when four-time World Champion and Olympic figure skating legend Kurt Browning stopped by our 399 Vansickle Road location in St. Catharines for a little treasure hunting! 🥇⛸️

True to his reputation, Kurt was as warm and gracious as they come, taking the time to chat with our amazing staff and even pausing for a photo with our wonderful Cynthia. Moments like these remind us why we love what we do!

You truly never know what... or who you`ll find at Goodwill Niagara!😆

Thank you for visiting us Kurt, you made our day!

Today, we honour the strength, care, and quiet dedication of mothers, those who give so selflessly to their families and our community.
