Penguin Point fundraiser aids Manchester University

On Jan. 17, Penguin Point restaurants in North Manchester and Wabash donated 10 percent of meal purchases to Manchester University during the “Let’s Get Right to the Point!” campaign.

It raised $409 for the University.

“This was a win-win,” said Janeen Kooi, director of The Manchester Fund and donor relations. “Everyone who got to the Point that day supported a local business AND Manchester University students! What better way to spend mealtime on a Sunday than by helping others?”

Penguin Point’s Wally mascot visited the North Manchester campus on Wednesday, Feb. 3 to deliver the donation to Manny, MU’s mascot.
