Being a Santa for those without Kiera Manion-Fischer
Amherst resident Shanyn Flesch runs Angels for Kids, a nonprofit aiding homeless and underprivileged children in Lorain County. The yearly Christmas party at House of Praise Church in Lorain drew about 60 children, each receiving multiple gifts while families got board games, hot chocolate, and popcorn. Flesch, an Eli ry native, began helping in 1999 visiting group and foster homes, forming a nonprofit in 2009, with support from WOBL radio and Elyria Catholic High School. She also leads back to school efforts, taking children to salons for haircuts and new clothes, with referrals from Lorain County Children Services and others.
