LISBON — Students at Lisbon Community School (LCS) continue the gift of giving to others well after the holidays and throughout the school year.

Prior to leaving for school vacation on Feb. 17, students assisted with gathering cans of nonperishable food items donated by students, staff and families to the Lisbon Area Christian Outreach located at the MTM building on School Street in Lisbon Falls. LACO is a nonprofit organization sponsored by various churches in Lisbon, Durham and Bowdoin to provide the communities with a food pantry and clothing bank.

“The Lisbon community of schools is a caring group of students, staff and families who give from the heart to help others,” said Carol Day, co-director of LACO. “We are fortunate to have a number of Lisbon Interact students and junior volunteers who assist at the center on a regular basis volunteering their time to make a difference in our community.”

LACO’s hours of operation are Wednesdays 6 to 8 p.m.; Thursdays from 10 a.m. until noon; and Saturdays from 8 to 10 a.m.
