Nicole and Robert Hawks, the new campaign co-chairs for Ashland United Way, join Amy Daubenspeck of the Ashland Area Chamber of Commerce to discuss their involvement with the Ashland United Way and the upcoming 2025 campaign.

They highlight the importance of supporting partner agencies and programs that address issues such as child abuse, housing, and food insecurity. They encourage individuals to donate, volunteer, and get involved in United Way events, and to help them recognize and serve the need that exists in Ashland County.

Plus, it's a Husband and Wife "Lighting Round", and that's always a fun way to learn more about your favorite people, and for them to learn more about each other, too!
