United Way exceeds campaign goal

BOARDMAN

The United Way of Youngstown and the Mahoning Valley exceeded its 2013 campaign goal of $2.5 million by raising $2,505,449.

Campaign results were announced today at Window World on Southern Boulevard, along with winners of campaign incentives sponsored by Window World.

“Exceeding our campaign goal in these uncertain economic times speaks volumes about the caring and compassionate people who live in the Mahoning Valley,” said Robert Hannon, president of the local United Way.

Becky Wall, vice president of Dearing Compressor and Pump Co., said it was her honor to serve as 2013 campaign chairwoman.

Wall challenged area companies to run workplace campaign during the 2014 United Way campaign and give employees a chance to “pay it forward.”
