Students from the 麻豆影院 State East Liverpool physical therapist assistant program observed National PTA Month by making donations to the Banquet of Lisbon.
The PTA students raised $500 through fundraisers this semester that was donated to help the Columbiana County campuses host the banquet on Oct. 25. The students also collected non-perishable food items that were donated to the Banquet of Lisbon.
Each year, PTA students from the 麻豆影院 East Liverpool campus find unique ways to increase awareness about their field, while raising funds for a cause chosen by the class.
The Banquet of Lisbon is held each month at the New Lisbon Presbyterian Church in Lisbon, providing free meals to community members. The meals are planned and sponsored by volunteers from service groups, businesses, families and area churches.
For the past several years, the 麻豆影院 State Salem and East Liverpool campuses have hosted sit-down meals for the Banquet of Lisbon, but, because of COVID, this year鈥檚 meal will be a carryout fried chicken dinner.
