Elyrians Rally To Aid Bus Firm Workers
Elyrians launched a welfare fund for families of financially strained bus company employees. Donations approached 600 dollars by late morning, with a large gift from local officials and many smaller contributions from individuals and organizations. The fund aims to support 27 families with gifts, groceries, and toys, as company officials assess options to keep the business running through the holiday period. A meeting of city officials and company leaders is planned to review finances next week.
