Chicago, IL, March 28, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Accretive Helping Hands, the charitable organization founded by Accretive Health employees, recently hosted its 7th Annual NCAA Bracket Challenge to support Chicago’s St. Joseph Services (stjosephservices.org). The bracket challenge is a fundraiser and March Madness pool, with 50 percent of the entry fee going to the programs that St. Joseph Services offers in some of Chicago most stressed and underserved neighborhoods. As in past years, employees rallied around the effort and $900 was raised.

“We are always happy to support St. Joseph Services’ work in Chicago’s neediest communities,” said Bhavna Deole, an Accretive Health employee and member of the Accretive Helping Hands junior board. “Strengthening and developing others is truly reflective of our company’s mission. I am proud of our employees’ dedication to volunteering at the St. Joseph Services centers and contribute toward the good work they do.”
