Thirteen individuals and companies received Do Good awards from United Way of Greater Cincinnati Tuesday, recognizing their great work improving the Northern Kentucky community. Among those individuals were Whiskey and Wishes founders, Billy and Neena Volk.

Do Gooders are individuals or advocates serving their communities and the people in them by giving back in small to big ways, said Amanda Greenwell, director of United Way’s Northern Kentucky Area Center. The Do Good award was created in 2019 by the Northern Kentucky office of United Way of Greater Cincinnati to recognize individuals and organizations doing good things in Northern Kentucky.

“They help change lives, alter perceptions and build awareness,” she said. “Just by lending a hand, giving of their time, or initiating something new, they “Do Good” in the lives of others. Their efforts and passion in going above and beyond help strengthen the communities where we live, work and gather.”
