CALLING ALL SUPERHEROES!
Grab Your Cape!!
Join this Local League of Heroes!
Be a Hero- Throughout the
ages heroes have come
in many shapes and sizes.
Short, tall, young and old
these often “non-caped”
crusaders prove to us that
together we can make great
change in this world. They’ve
worn capes or common attire as they battle against
evil forces that threaten the
health and happiness of our
fellow man. Here in Lorain
County we’ve sighted many
superheroes that have done
great things for our commu-
nity. They’ve been a force
against poverty that tries to
consume our most vulnerable citizens, they’ve delivered smiles from door to door
and provided holiday cheer
when the time was right.
Assembling a league of superheroes to join together
in collaboration is no small
task. Neighborhood Alliance has been going about
it for years slowly cultivating our league of heroes to
gather forces and defeat issues challenging the happiness of our community. We
would like to take a moment
to recognized our fantastic
league of heroes and highlight their accomplishments
throughout 2015. We hope
you enjoy the next few pages as much as we enjoyed
watching the good citizens
of Lorain County thrive.
In the State of Ohio on any given
night, more than 12,000 people
are homeless. Children make up a
staggering 23% of that population, in addition to the
senior citizens, and the working poor with nowhere else to go.
We all have heroism inside us.
