Local P.E.O. chapter to host fundraiser Saturday

P.E.O. Chapter HA will host an AtHome America party from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday at the Farm Bureau building.

Proceeds from the event will go to P.E.O. charities that encourage and support women?s education.

AtHome America?s homestyle specialist Joy Messer will present a variety of home-decorating accessories for every room, style, season and celebration. Products include wall decor, dinnerware and linens, decorative accents, baskets, holiday items, candles and more. Products can be viewed online at www.athome.com.

Fifty percent of sales of made-in-America Scentennial jar candles and a percentage of other sales will go to support P.E.O. projects such as P.E.O.?s Scholar Awards, Star Scholarship, Educational Loan Fund, International Peace Scholarship, and Program for Continuing Education. P.E.O. also provides financial support to Cottey College, the organization?s fully accredited liberal arts college for women at Nevada, Mo.
