Bus to Bethlehem
It will be a brighter Christmas for 154 children in Washington, Westmoreland and Greene counties thanks to the Bus to Bethlehem – a cooperative between St. Sebastian Regional Catholic School in North Belle Vernon and Connect Inc. The recipients are participants in Connect Inc. housing programs and the Washington Family Center. The joint effort was also a success because of the generosity of the public. Pictured in front of the bus, from left, are second-grade students Brennah Keller and Aliana Watson, and fifth-grade students Madison Keller, Ally Peden, Brandon Plunko and Gaige Watson. Jenelle Sawicky, supervisor of the Washington Family Center, is pictured with gifts that she delivered to the center.
