Celebrating the success of Sunrise Cookbooks with a ceremonial check presentation

Celebrating the success recently with a ceremonial check presentation at WTHR studios were: (Front row left to right) Mimi Pearce, Eyewitness news; Tom O’Boyle, Marsh president and chief executive officer, John Cardenas, WTHR president and general manager; Julia Moffitt, Eyewitness News; Bruce Kopp, Eyewitness News; and Mary Jones, United Way of Central Indiana

If you bought one of the Sunrise Cookbooks this year to benefit United Christmas Service, you may have wondered how it helped. Today’s check presentation of $58,900 to the program amounted to a lot of cookbooks. But more importantly, the project helped 25,561 people in Central Indiana celebrate the holidays who otherwise would not have been able to. Throughout the life of the Marsh partnership with WTHR Channel 13 and United Way, cookbook sales have cumulatively raised $673,900!

Oh! And if you missed buying cookbook during the holidays, no worries! WTHR is going to have some available at its upcoming Health and Fitness Expo April 27-28!
