MLFE Raises $4,100

The Mt. Lebanon Foundation for Education raised $4,100 through ticket sales for its second annual Menu Tasting and Wine Pairing fund-raiser, held earlier this month. The event at Isabela on Grandview Restaurant, generated $100 from each $135 ticket to benefit the foundation, which provides education programs for the students in Mt. Lebanon schools. A holiday mailing appeal raised another $2,235.

The foundation was established in 1999 and is a donor advised endowment fund through the Pittsburgh Foundation. It's mission is to provide a permanent source of financial support to enable the Mt. Lebanon School District to expand and enhance learning opportunities for students. Since its inception, the foundation has raised more than $125,000, awarding 70 grants to teachers for innovative classroom projects. See more at www.mlfe.org or call Jackie Foor at 412-478-7743.
