‘Kid Santa’ donates toys to children who lost theirs in Metro Detroit floods

DEARBORN HEIGHTS, Mich.When parts of Metro Detroit flooded in late June, one of the big things lost was a lot of children’s toys.

Toys are usually kept in basements, and one person known as “Kid Santa” -- an EMT and Dearborn Heights native -- decided to do something about it.

Nearly $15,000 worth of new toys were donated to the city of Dearborn Heights and were distributed at a flood recovery event Friday.

A GoFundMe has been set up to help raise money for toys lost. You can donate here.
