More stories from By Erika Johnk
A new Goodwill Industriewwws of KYOWVA Area Inc. retail store and donation center will be opening in February at 727 9th Ave.
Director of Marketing and Social Media Beth Hendricks said they wanted to extend further into the community.
“One of our goals going into this year was to open a few new stores,” Hendricks said. “The main reason to opening a new store in Huntington was that it is in an area that we don’t currently reach out to and serve and we want to extend further into the community and provide another opportunity for people to come to our Goodwill.”
Goodwill is a multi-service agency that provides an equal opportunity of seeking education. It also provides useful job skills to those who have disabilities or other disadvantaging conditions.

Hendricks said they have a mission that is more than what the community can see.
“Ultimately, the message we have is more than the stores that you see,” Hendricks said. “Our stores are linked to our mission which is to strengthen the community by providing a career and development opportunities along with counseling services to those in the community at a free or reduced cost.”
The hours of operation are 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday.
