Charlotte-Mecklenburg Senior Centers have run out of fans to
distribute to seniors across Mecklenburg County. The waiting list for
fans grows daily. Please support our seniors by making a financial
donation of $16 or by donating a new fan so that we can continue to
support the need for the 2012 Heat Relief Program. We can only extend
this year's program with the generosity of friends like you. Your
donation may save the life of a senior during this record summer heat
20" box fans move air that cools the body through the evaporation
process. Many seniors are too scared to open windows or use screen
doors to provide circulation to cool their homes and their bodies.
In addition, senior bodies do not cool as well as younger bodies;
individuals with COPD and congestive heart failure are more at risk
for hospitalization in higher temperatures.
You may send or drop off your donation at:
Tyvola Senior Center

Charlotte, NC 28210
