"For all of us to come together that quickly, I'm not surprised at all by that, that's what we do in Lorain County when something needs to be addressed," said Alicia Foss, of Neighborhood Alliance."We've had a total of 10 units that have been donated at this point and we're looking for more," said Foss.
For now, members of LC4UKRAINE will continue doing what they can to make this transition as smooth as possible. "It's heartbreaking, but I am so glad there's a group of us here in Lorain County that are willing to help and able to help," said Foss.
