LISBON — Hannah Martel, a sophomore at Lisbon High School and a member of the school’s Community Service Club, devoted 52 hours of unconditional love and caring for eight puppies through the Greater Androscoggin Humane Society’s Foster Puppy Program.

Martel, an active Lisbon volunteer for her school, contacted GAHS, located at Strawberry Avenue in Lewiston, to participate in the program as a personal community service project. In conjunction with the program, Martel networked with the local Girl Scout Troop to offer members the opportunity to earn their pet care badge.

“It was an unforgettable experience, and I hope to do it again sometime,” said Martel.

The Community Service groups in Lisbon Schools work on numerous service projects throughout the year benefiting local nonprofit agencies with their in-kind services and fundraising endeavors.
