In late August, Leader Publications hosted a carnival style fundraiser for United Way of Southwest Michigan. Guests visited Fifty-Five in downtown Niles to ride a pony, play carnival style games, have their pictures taken in a photo booth, eat food, participate in a silent auction and give back to United Way. Pictured here, Donna Knight (right), customer service specialist for Leader Publications, hands an $800 check to Charlotte Rogers (left), director of the annual campaign, and Anna Murphy, president of United Way of Southwest Michigan.
