Enhancing Lives Through Meaningful Work
At Lott Industries, we believe that meaningful employment looks different for everyone. While some of the adults we serve use Lott as a stepping stone toward independent employment, others thrive in a supervised work crew where they can build skills, contribute to their community, and experience the dignity of meaningful work. Through our off-site work programs, our employees have the opportunity to work beyond our building, developing confidence and purpose while making a lasting impact throughout the Toledo area.
One of those crews serves at One Government Center in downtown Toledo. The team works diligently to keep one of our city's busiest public buildings clean, safe, and welcoming for employees and visitors.
For the adults on this crew, the impact goes far beyond the work itself. Being part of a team, interacting with the community, and taking pride in a job well done grows confidence, builds valuable workplace skills, and creates opportunities for greater independence.
The team's dedication has earned the appreciation of those they serve. Kayla Cunningham, Communications Manager for the Toledo-Lucas County Port Authority, shared, "The Toledo-Lucas County Port Authority is proud to recognize the outstanding work of the Lott Industries cleaning team at One Government Center. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and commitment to excellence ensure our facility is consistently clean, welcoming, and well-maintained for our staff, tenants, and visitors. We sincerely appreciate their dedication, hard work, and the high standard of service they provide every day!"
This partnership is a wonderful example of why we do what we do at Lott — Enhancing Lives, Transforming Business, Enriching Communities. Through opportunities like our off-site work crews, adults with developmental disabilities are empowered to use their talents, serve others, and experience the fulfillment that comes from employment.
At the One Government Center, that impact can be seen every day — not only in a clean, welcoming building, but in a team whose hard work continues to strengthen our community. We’re grateful for the opportunity to serve!
