A new bus stop shelter is now in place.

(Aurora, Ind.) - A new addition has been completed at the YES Home.

For quite some time, the residential group home has wanted a shelter for their bus stop area.

Thanks to the talent and diligence of Ryan Benz, that dream has become a reality. Benz completed a bus stop shelter as his Eagle Scout Project.

He raised the funds himself and built the shelter to keep YES Home youth out of inclement weather.

The YES Home is a residential group home for youths aged 12-20, providing a structured, nurturing environment for abused, neglected and abandoned children.

For more information about the YES Home, visit https://www.yeshome.org/.
