Alexandria, VA, Dec. 12, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Good360, the global leader in product philanthropy and purposeful giving, announced today that the organization came in at #2 on the Forbes List of America’s Top 100 Charities, up from last year’s ranking of #6. The list, which is based solely on private contributions, reflects the most recently reported fiscal year for every organization. For Good360, that year is 2022, showing $2.669 billion in private support, which is significantly comprised of in-kind donations of essential goods like clothing, personal care, housewares, furniture, toys, and more.
