Ohio Valley Goodwill was pleased to welcome State Representative Ron Maag to its newest Vocational Services Center in the city of Lebanon on Friday, August 6th. Mr. Maag is the representative for district 35 which includes both Warren and Hamilton Counties. Goodwill Marketing Specialist, Sharon Hannon and Technician Supervisor, Darlene O’Hair in partnership with Goodwill’s program participants provided Mr. Maag with a comprehensive tour of both the retail store as well as the donation area of the recently opened training site. Program participant Faye Bengal carefully explained all of the many work opportunities available at the Lebanon Vocational Services Center and demonstrated some of her responsibilities to Representative Maag. “It’s my favorite job ever,” commented Faye during her conversation with Mr. Maag. The Representative was provided with information about not only the new Lebanon location but Ohio Valley Goodwill’s programs and services throughout the  region and especially through its headquarters in the village of Woodlawn. Mr. Maag was interested to learn about Goodwill’s long history of service in the Greater Cincinnati area as well as  the fact that the organization serves not only individuals with disabilities but also our nation’s veterans. The Representative was extended a cordial invitation to visit Goodwill’s main location in the future to get a fuller understanding of the scope of services the organization offers. “Ohio Valley Goodwill is grateful that the Representative was able to visit our new Lebanon Vocational Services Center,” said Sharon Hannon, Marketing Specialist. “We look forward to a  another visit to our corporate headquarters in the near future,” added Hannon.
