Two local nonprofits are holding a Market Day holiday pie and dessert sale. Pay-It-Forward House in Sycamore has partnered with the Joseph F. Glidden Homestead & Historical Center in DeKalb for the fundraiser.

“If we sell 500 or more pies, the profits we raise for our cause jump to 45 percent, so of course we want 500 to be our minimum goal,” Kathy Overby, board member and pie sale chairwoman at Pay-It-Forward House, said in a news release. “But this is a lot of pies to sell for a small organization. Partnering with Glidden Homestead in DeKalb is the perfect collaboration for this fundraiser. We combine our sales to help exceed our goal, earning more money for both our organizations while sharing these great products with both the DeKalb and Sycamore communities.”

Overby has been the driving force behind the pie sale fundraiser since she brought the idea to the Pay-It-Forward House board seven years ago. Her involvement has made this fundraiser a success and led to her taking a leadership role as a member of the board of directors.
