On Friday, Feb. 28, Russell Stover Chocolates of Iola presented a check to Hope Unlimited in the amount of $3,092.53. Employees raised these funds via their annual Pie in the Face event at the plant. Employees donate towards the manager or supervisor that they “most love.” The top five earning managers or supervisors receive a pie in the face. In memory of former colleague Sheila Kendall, Russell Stover employees decided to donate the funds to Hope Unlimited. The organization is dedicated to assisting those in the community who have experienced abuse, providing them with resources and support as they rebuild their lives. “We believe this cause truly reflects Sheila’s compassionate spirit and her commitment to helping those in need,” read a release from Russel Stover.
