Jeff Toth, Austintown DARE officer, spoke recently to members of the Rotary Club of Austintown. A veteran of 17 years, Toth will get some help when a new DARE officer joins the force with a specialty in drug and alcohol resistance education. Toth works with kindergarten, first-, third-, fifth- and seventh-graders, stressing the dangers of drugs and alcohol in their lives. He said the Austintown police maintain a drop-off site for expired and unneeded prescriptions at the police station. Above, from left is Rotary President Bruce Laraway presenting a book to Toth that will be donated in his honor to the library at Austintown Elementary School.

Newcomers of Mahoning Valley made donations to several local charities this year. Among them is the capital campaign for Angels for Animals, which is raising money to build a wing that will be a model for animal welfare. It will increase the number of spay or neuter surgeries performed and provide increased care and intake of abandoned animals. Above, from left, are Jorine Stone, president of Newcomers, presenting a check for the capital campaign to Diane Less, co-founder of Angels for Animals, and Alice Marchione, Angels for Animals volunteer. Anyone interested in helping Angels for Animals achieve its goal can call Less at 330-502-5352.
