May 3, 2019 - The Pi Beta Chapter of Phi Theta Kappa honor society at Panola College donated more than 400 boxes and packages of cereal to Mission Carthage on May 1.

“Our PTK group wanted to do a community service project this semester and chose to collect goods for Mission Carthage for the month of April. The students specifically chose to focus on the collection of cereal boxes,” said Emily Zabcik, mathematics professor and Phi Theta Kappa advisor.

Volunteers helped PTK students and sponsors unload the boxes of cereal at the Mission Carthage building on U.S. Highway 79 North.
