The County of Huron is expressing their gratitude to their community partners in helping homeless youth find shelter.
The Huron Out of the Cold: Heart to Home program emergency shelter has been operating at the Lakeshore United Church for over a month (November 16th).
In a news release, Warden Glen McNeil says so many people have stepped up to the plate when called upon to do whatever it took to ensure that the community is vibrant, resilient and inclusive.
He says it is more important than ever to support the most vulnerable members of the community.
They continue to accept donations of cash and hygiene products including soap, shampoo, toothbrushes, deodorant, feminine hygiene products, socks, and underwear.
