YW residents benefit from donation

Rob Truitt, YWCA maintenance foreman, delivers a chair from the Gasser Chair Co. to Crystal Williams, a resident in YWCA of Youngstown permanent supportive housing. Mark Gasser, company president, made the donation of 48 chairs for use in YWCA apartments on Rayen Avenue in Youngstown for low-income and homeless individuals. Leah Brooks, interim executive director, said the YWCA recently completed renovation and historic preservation of the YWCA building and the chairs with dark wooden trim and butterscotch color match the historic color palette. The YWCA and community donations help furnish apartments.
