Lebanon High TSA

The Lebanon High School Technology Student Association (TSA) donated 5 ten dollar Food City Gift Cards to the Russell County Department of Social Services for their Adult White Christmas program. Lebanon High School TSA President Chase Campbell and Southwestern Regional TSA President William Rutherford presented Catherine Sandefur, Adult Program Director with the gift cards. Also present was Tammy Garrett, Social Worker, and Laura Cross, Social Worker Aide.

“Many elderly need a little extra help during this time of year” said Ms. Sandefur, “We are very grateful that these young men and women of TSA thought of our adults that can use some extra help this Christmas season.”

“Christmas is a time of giving and we did not want to forget our elderly folks at this time of year.” said Chase Campbell. Each year TSA does a variety of activites and events. TSA is a nationwide student association focusing on developing skills to prepare young people for the challenges of a dynamic world by promoting technological literacy, leadership, and problem solving, resulting in personal growth and opportunities.
