TV host, decluttering expert and ambassador for Goodwill Matt Paxton is coming to Winter Garden. 

The international spokesperson for the nonprofit is aiming to encourage the community to put his latest book into practice. 

“Keep the Memories, Lose the Stuff,” educates the community on how to downsize by organizing their keepsakes and encourages locals to donate unwanted items. 

Attendees who arrive with donations at the Winter Garden store will receive a free copy of the book while supplies last – which Paxton will be onsite to sign.

According to Goodwill, the donations help to provide low-cost goods to the community while also helping people achieve their goals through resources and jobs. 

Paxton is best known for his role on the popular television shows “Hoarders” and “Legacy List with Matt Paxton.”

The event will take place 9:30-11 a.m. on Friday, April 8, at 14190 W. Colonial Drive. 

A second donation drive and signing event will be held in the afternoon at the Port Orange store. Free books will again be distributed while supplies last.

In addition, donors who visit any of Goodwill’s other Central Florida retail stores or Donation Xpress Centers on the same day will receive a special gift.
