A dedication ceremony was held today for a new $13 million Goodwill Industries training center and retail store in Kapolei, as the charity was celebrated for the positive impacts it has had on the lives of thousands of people in Hawai'i during the past 50 years.

Goodwill operates eight stores in Hawai'i and has 12 service locations. The new Kapolei center, located at 2140 Lauwiliwili St., is expected to provide training to about 1,600 people per year.

The retail store is open 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., Mondays through Saturdays; and 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Sundays.
