PENNFIELD, MI. – (WTVB) – A Grand Occasion co-owner Katy Olmsted-Lenhardt has been named by organizers of the Branch County United Way Power of the Purse as the 2020 Business Woman of the Year.
She and her husband Jake purchased Pifers Rental in 2005. The business has grown by leaps and bounds since that time.
The couple help out as much as they can in the community and there is always a break for non profits.
The Power of the Purse recently named Lisa Tubergan as the Woman of the Year in Service. She and her husband Jim spend 12-15 hours a day in “The Shed”. The Tubergans take their business proceeds and donates them to families in need.
Purse donations for the event have been made over the last month.
The Power of the Purse will take place on March 14th at the Dearth Community Center. Event proceeds will provide funding for the Dolly Parton Imagination Library for Branch County United Way.
