Algonquin will get a new Goodwill store this week.

The grand opening for the Goodwill store at 1430 E. Algonquin Road in Algonquin will be held Thursday, Oct. 2, with doors scheduled to open at 9 a.m.

The Algonquin Goodwill will include a drive-thru donation center that allows donors to quickly drop off their items without having to enter the store.

“We are thrilled with the opportunity to serve the citizens of Algonquin and surrounding communities,” said Sam Schmitz, President of Goodwill Industries of Northern Illinois. “We look forward to collaborating with other non-profits in the area to assist each other in meeting our respective missions. We also look forward to our long-term commitment to Algonquin.”

Grand Opening celebration events are planned for the Algonquin Goodwill store throughout the entire month of October. Events include prize drawings on October 3rd and October 5th, balloons for kids on October 4th, a live radio remote on October 11th, the Algonquin/Lake in the Hills Chamber of Commerce ribbon cutting on October 24th, and more!

The store is open seven days a week: Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.; Saturday, 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.; and Sunday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
