Cincinnati, OH · · March 10, 2016 · · Ohio Valley Goodwill Industries is pleased to announce the official grand opening of a new retail store and Attended Donation Center located at 7773 Cincinnati-Dayton Rd., West Chester, OH on Thursday, March 17, 2016. A ribbon-cutting ceremony will take place at 8:45 am to mark the opening of this new retail and donation center. Hours of operation will be Monday through Saturday from 9:30 am to 9:00 pm and Sunday from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm. For the convenience of donors, the drive-thru center will be staffed with an attendant who will assist contributors with their donations and offer them a receipt.
This new West Chester retail and donation center location will join in with the other donation site located at Tylersville and Cox Roads and will offer the ease of drive-up service.
” We are so pleased that Goodwill is able to offer this new convenient shopping and donation site for our customers in the West Chester/Butler County area and we appreciate their generous support of our very important mission,” said Jeff Eastham, Goodwill’s Direction of Operations.
Through its network of donation centers and retail stores, Goodwill is able to raise more than 65% of the income needed to provide programs for the people it serves. Goodwill is always in need of donations and as an effective community steward; Ohio Valley Goodwill Industries has always taken its role in the recycling process very seriously.
Even donations that are not sold in Goodwill stores are handled efficiently and in an environmentally responsible manner.
Donors can be sure that items that cannot be sold are still valuable to Goodwill and that the organization uses these items to help with its mission to serve individuals with disabilities.
Ohio Valley Goodwill Industries is always in need of clean, usable clothing, shoes, household items including small electric appliances and kitchen items, children’s items, seasonal items, sporting goods, furniture and even auto donations! For customer convenience, Ohio Valley Goodwill handles all the paperwork to make vehicle donations as simple and easy as possible.
For 100 years, Ohio Valley Goodwill has been providing skill training, employment and personal enrichment programs for men and women with disabilities, veterans and at-risk youth. Each year, Goodwill serves more than 3,000 people and typically helps more than 900 individuals to get jobs in the Greater Cincinnati community. Shopping and donations to Ohio Valley Goodwill have made this mission of service possible for the past century.
