The One Hope United staff in Charleston, Ill., organized a fundraiser at Monical’s Pizza on Tuesday, July 31, raising nearly $300 for the agency.

Many people came to the Charleston restaurant at lunchtime carrying flyers, which allowed OHU to receive 20 percent of the customer’s total bill. In an effort to bring further recognition to OHU and help people in the community understand what we do, the staff also attached an “About Us” section to each flyer. Monical’s restaurants in Mattoon, Sullivan and Arcola, Ill., also participated in the fundraiser.

Special recognition and thanks goes to OHU employees Kristy Hardwick, Heather Drake and Casey Hoenes for going above and beyond to make sure flyers were passed out in all four locations! Great teamwork!
