"WCPO Channel 9 TV Showcases Goodwill Auto Auction and Generous Donor!"

This week’s Goodwill Auto Auction was made even more exciting because a vintage 1960 Buick LeSabre  generously donated by a Goodwill supporter  and showcased on WCPO  Channel 9 was sold at a great price. The vintage vehicle, fully restored and in mint condition was donated by Geoffrey Amann, who works for the Free Store Food Bank.In the story featured on Channel 9, WCPO TV, Mr. Amann explained that the reason he decided to donate the  vehicle to Ohio Valley Goodwill is because  he knows that non-profits are struggling during  these tough economic times and can use as much support as they can get.
