VAN WERT — Giving back is part of living in a community. Vantage students share time and money each month.
Students in the Transition to Work program at Vantage Career Center made a $200 donation to the Paulding County United Way through their September fundraising efforts. The fundraiser includes making breakfast and specialty beverages for Vantage staff, as well as selling hand-made items from their TTW Store.
“Each month these students make it a goal to donate either their time to a local organization or give a monetary donation, raised through fundraiser activities within the district,” says Instructor Susan Farr. “The donation of time or money has taught students about local organizations and the importance of giving back to the community.”
