WNY Thrive helps you find and support local! My name is Ken Lockwood, and I’m the founder of this community. I live in Orchard Park, NY, and work full-time as the CIO at Protective Industries. I’m also a proud parent of three beautiful kids. After a life-changing experience in 2020, I started the WNY Thrive Facebook group to promote local businesses, raise money for charities, and spread goodwill throughout Western New York and the Finger Lakes. Unlike most large groups, we encourage self-promotion of local businesses, as long as it’s positive. Consumers come here often to find products, services, charities, and to network with like-minded people. Join us in supporting our local community and making Western New York a better place for everyone!
