Nonprofit’s seventeenth retail store broadens capabilities to support programs of service
LAS VEGAS, Nev. (November 15, 2022) – Goodwill of Southern Nevada (Goodwill®) will open a new retail store on Las Vegas Blvd. to the public on Friday, November 18, 2022. The Goodwill Las Vegas Blvd. Store will offer tens of thousands of unique clothing, housewares, electronics, and other items generously donated by the community and carefully prepared every day for sale by the store’s forty team members.
The Grand Opening Celebration of Goodwill’s seventeenth retail store and donation center, located at 7680 S. Las Vegas Blvd. (at Robindale), will begin with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 8:45 a.m. Shoppers will be welcomed into the doors at 9:00 a.m., with the first 100 customers receiving a complimentary $5 Goodwill gift card and Las Vegas-themed reusable shopping bag.
“Establishing our seventeenth Goodwill retail store and donation center on one of America’s most iconic thoroughfares represents an important milestone for our social enterprise,” said Goodwill of Southern Nevada President and CEO Rick Neal. “The Goodwill Las Vegas Blvd. Store will stand as a testament to the hard work of our organization’s 800-plus dedicated team members, each of whom plays a vital role in sustaining our stores, operations, mission programs, and service to our community.”
Donations and sales of gently used household items support Goodwill career services and train-to-hire employer partnerships. A team of ten career coaches stationed at two store-based Career Centers and the Goodwill Training Academy provide personalized guidance to job seekers and military veterans as they explore healthcare and stagehand training programs, work readiness workshops, and support services that develop skills or shepherd letters of intent into full-time employment.
Donations are accepted at all Goodwill retail stores during store hours, as well as at four attended donation centers throughout the Las Vegas Valley. The Goodwill Las Vegas Blvd. Store is open Monday through Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and Sundays from 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
