Horizon Goodwill

Horizon Goodwill is the Goodwill thrift store at 223 North Third Street in Oakland, the Garrett County seat, not far from Garrett Regional Medical Center. It's a straightforward stop for residents and lake visitors looking for secondhand clothing, furniture and household goods, and a convenient place to drop off things you no longer need.

What You'll Find on the Racks

Stock comes from community donations, so it changes all the time. The store carries:

• Used clothing
• Furniture
• Household items and housewares
• Mattresses and box springs

Because everything is donated, it pays to stop in more than once if you're hunting for something particular.

Who Runs It

The store is operated by Horizon Goodwill Industries, a nonprofit workforce development organization headquartered in Hagerstown that runs social enterprises and human services programs across 17 counties in Maryland, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Virginia. Its stated mission is to remove barriers to social mobility and create lasting employment opportunities, and its retail stores are among the social enterprises that support that work, alongside programs such as workforce development, job training, resource centers and youth services.

Donating

The Oakland store accepts reusable items of the kind it sells, which makes it an easy way to clear out a closet or a rental before the season ends. Horizon Goodwill's website has donation FAQs and donation receipt information if you need a record for your taxes.

Next time you're running errands in downtown Oakland, it's worth swinging by to browse or to drop off a bag of donations.
