It’s not uncommon for temperatures to reach deadly levels in the summer. It’s critical we equip our most vulnerable citizens with an effective and simple solution to help them beat the heat. I had a great time personally distributing these free box fans and delivering this much-needed service for the second year in a row.

Saturday’s giveaway was the final of a two-part giveaway. Last month, 60 box fans were donated to vulnerable seniors in El Paso County. A total of 90 box fans were donated to seniors to beat the heat this summer.

I want to thank our sponsors and partners, El Paso Electric, Rio Grande Council of Governments (RGCOG), Centro San Vicente, and the Project Vida Health Center in Sierra Blanco for donating the box fans and identifying our constituents in need. I am always inspired by our community’s generosity.
