Donations of $1,500 were made to the State College Area School District Foundation and the Bellefonte Education Foundation, and a $1,000 donation was made to Discovery Space in State College. Pictured, from left, are Curt Myers, Chris Harris and Christine Shawley of Weis Markets; Pam Vaiana, vice president, Bellefonte Educational Foundation; and Jim Eckert, Mike Cassady, Betsy Corman and Lisa Plumley, all of Weis Markets.These donations were made possible through Pennsylvania’s Educational Improvement Tax Credit program (EITC). The Bellefonte School District uses its donation for summer camps and cultural experiences, as well as art and technology programs for students. The State College School District uses EITC funds for its International Baccalaureate Program for students. Discovery Space of Central PA has a wide variety of after school science programs for students.
