Donald Trump's recent executive order bars entry to refugees for 120 days,
and to those from Syria indefinitely. It blocks visitors for 90 days from
seven countries.
Refugees are among the most vulnerable people on the planet. Many have
suffered unimaginably. In the United States is a nation of refugees and
immigrants.
I hope that our representatives in Congress and in Ohio will pressure
President Trump to reverse this order. Meanwhile, I hope within Ada, we all
work to show international students, immigrants and refugees that they are
welcome and valued in our community.

Quite simply, most people give to help others! The United Way of Hardin County continues to do just that, as it is celebrating 50 years of turning "Compassion into Action." The United Way has assisted 21 programs through local non profit agencies, supporting a broad range of human service programs. Among many of the services, our programs have provided scholarships, housed the homeless, transported our seniors, fed the hungry, mentored our children and improved health and safety to our communities.

I moved to Ada approximately 3 years ago along with my husband, who found a faculty position at Ohio Northern University (ONU). One of the many concerns I had moving to Ada was whether my then 6 year old son could find adequate resources for intellectual stimulation.
