EAST LIVERPOOL — For this holiday season, volunteers hit a landmark accomplishment.
Not only have they distributed close to 200,000 meals to East Liverpool students since classroom doors were shuttered in 2020 due to the pandemic, members of the school district staff and the community donated almost $7,000 through the effort of city Councilman Jeff Kreefer and his project to provide gift cards, hams and turkeys to families in need within the district.
