Liberty SCA Kiss the Pig Event

Recently, the SCA officers and representatives at Liberty Middle School, with oversight from their advisors, Rhonda Booth and Christian Edwards, worked to organize a “Kiss the Pig” fundraiser. Using spare change as a “vote,” the community service project allowed LMS students to “vote” for their favorite teacher(s) they wanted to see “Kiss the Pig.” Once the “winners” were chosen, “Petunia” the pig and her owner visited with the students so that the teachers could meet and kiss Petunia. Petunia enjoyed all the attention, and the students enjoyed meeting Petunia! In total, the event raised $198.70 which was donated to the Hanover Humane Society. The Hanover Humane Society, located at 12190 Washington Highway in Ashland is a recognized IRS non-profit 501 ( c) 3 entity.
