United Way Eyes $160000 Franklin County Goal
United Way of Franklin County aims to raise 160000 by year end, with about 130000 already raised this year. Executive director Meg Pearson says ongoing campaigns across payroll deductions online and in the community support 16 local agencies including Red Cross and Habitat for Humanity, and donations stay in Franklin County unless requested otherwise. The effort uses small business campaigns, corporate drives, and events at Ottawa University and Ottawa High School to raise funds for Meals on Wheels, Hope House, and other local services.
