Senator Richard Alloway II (R-33) is urging local businesses to take part in his “Here To Help” job fair on Feb. 3 in Greencastle.

The job fair, which is being hosted by Alloway in conjunction with the Franklin County Area Development Corporation and PA CareerLink of Franklin County, will help match job-seekers with local employment opportunities. Representatives from various human services organizations will be available at the event to offer assistance to unemployed individuals as well.

“Many knowledgeable and experienced individuals are looking for work right now due to the recession,” Alloway said. “I am hopeful that many local businesses will take advantage of this opportunity to meet potential new employees who can help a business thrive and grow.”

The job fair will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Feb. 3 at Green Grove Gardens, Greencastle.

Interested businesses can reserve a space by contacting Stacy Gregson at sgregson@pasen.gov no later than Jan. 27.
