Luthern Social Services
97th Annual Meeting a Delight!
The 97th Annual Meeting, held March 31, 2008 at the Park Inn, Toledo, Ohio, was a delightful evening of sharing the story of what God has done through the ministry of LSS of NW Ohio!
Featured speaker, Ms. Jackie Mayer, Miss America 1963 inspired all who attended in her story of triumph over trauma. Born and raised in Sandusky, Ohio, Ms. Mayer has received numerous prestigious awards for her work as an inspirational speaker dedicated to helping stroke survivors and their families overcome this devastating illness.

We were also blessed to hear the courageous story of "Allison", a young women who shared her story of positive, life affirming changes made with the help she received from the caring staff of LSS.
The Moody Flutes provided beautiful music as guests visited with clinicians, staff and volunteers of LSS in the atrium area prior to entereing the dining room to enjoy a delicious meal prepared by the outstanding staff of the Park Inn. Each of the LSS programs prepared a basket reflecting the services they provide at the nineteen locations throughout the twenty-four counties of Northwest Ohio.

Attention: Internet Surfers!
How many times a week do you use an Internet search engine like Yahoo!, Google, or Ask.com? For many people, the answer is probably “A whole bunch.” What if Lutheran Social Services of Northwestern Ohio earned a penny every time you performed such a search? Now it’s possible.
GoodSearch.com is a new search Web site that donates half of its revenue (about one penny per search) to the charity of the searcher’s choice. You use it just as you would any search engine, and GoodSearch is powered by Yahoo! so you are guaranteed good search results.
To start using GoodSearch, go to www.goodsearch.com. You will see two boxes the search box and a box that says “Who do you GoodSearch for?” Simply enter in “Lutheran Social Services of Northwestern Ohio” and start searching. A penny for every search may not seem like much... but imagine if 100 people searched twice each day using GoodSearch. Over the course of a year, LSSNWO would make over $730. GoodSearch makes it easy to support your favorite non-profit organization... and all you have to do is something that you already do anyway.
