Vaughn Dibiase, owner of Northeast Auto Works and a former Portland Public Schools student, has donated more than $1,000 in school supplies, sneakers, and snacks to Longfellow Elementary School. As a former PPS student, he has stayed in touch with his former teacher, Susan Taylor. Dibiase and his wife donate to various organizations every year. Through his relationship with Taylor, they learned about the needs at Longfellow School and recently made the generous donation.
