This year’s beneficiary groups include: Butler County Success, Habitat for Humanity of Greater Cincinnati, Oxford Community Choice Food Pantry, Open Hands Food Pantry, BCESC Success Program, Talawanda Social Work Team and Ohio Valley Goodwill.
” As a newer business in the Oxford community, Goodwill is very pleased to once again be the Donation Sponsor of the ShareFest Donation Drive for the fifth year in a row,” said Jeff Eastham, Operations Director. The Oxford Goodwill store is located at 203 South Locust Street (close to the new Oxford library) and offers a selection of fashion items, books and collectibles and has been well received by the community. The Oxford Goodwill store also features a drive-thru donation center for the convenience of local donors. During the ShareFest donation drive, the Goodwill donation center will be filled with the generous donations provided by students and community members.
