The Dough Hook Meat Market is teaming up with Ronald McDonald House Charities of Northwest Ohio to help those in need. Throughout the months of November and December, The Dough Hook Meat Market will be collecting cash donations that will be turned into meat for the house’s freezer.
The old grain elevator building at 241 Cherry St. has been demolished by Ben's Construction of Lima with funding by the Ohio Building Demolition and Site Revitalization Program, which is helping communities "tear down dilapidated commercial and residential buildings and revitalize surrounding properties to attract investments, businesses, and jobs."
With work beginning on Monday, October 31, the building was no longer recognizable on November 1.
The old "Farmers Grain Co. #2" building took a serious push to topple over. A video by Blended Roots manager Katelyn Gainok showed that a heavy shovel/hydraulic excavator took some five minutes to flatten what remained of the building.

The answer depends on your individual situation, because donor-advised funds are not appropriate for everyone. However, if you’re in a position to make larger charitable gifts, you might at least want to see what this strategy has to offer.
