The Edge Media Group is again hosting its annual Cooling Our Communities campaign to donate fans to Pennyrile Allied Community Services.
The donations will be distributed to senior citizens and families who struggle during the hot summer months due to financial constraints.
PACS Community Services Director Krista Groves said that air flow in a home helps to stay cooler.
PACS serves a nine-county region and has already disbursed the over 200 fans collected during last year’s campaign. Groves, along with Trigg County’s Tiffany Roth, added that the need is already blowing in.
Both shared that while they will take whatever new fans they can get, those in need typically ask for fans that feature a pedestal and rotate around the room.
PACS also features other assistance for the community members who need it. Those services can be sought out by visiting your local PACS office in Caldwell, Christian, Crittenden, Hopkins, Livingston, Lyon, Muhlenberg, Todd, and Trigg Counties.
Monetary donations can be made at pacs-ky.org and marked for Cooling Our Communities, or fans can be purchased and left at Akridge Farm Supply in Eddyville and Fredonia, or Falders in Princeton. Fredonia Valley Bank in Eddyville and Fredonia, and the WPKY Studio are also places to drop off donations of either type.
