Low Income Families in El Paso Still Need Relief from the Heat
El Paso Extreme Weather Task Force
organizes fan drive and fundraiser.
The
high temperatures are back, as we expect to reach near triple digits today and
tomorrow. Unfortunately the County
Attorney's Elder
Protection Unit is running low on fans to give relief to needy families.
Without
the community's support we cannot help prevent more heat-related emergencies. That
is why the County
Attorney's Elder
Protection Unit in collaboration with the El Paso Fire Department, the El Paso
County Sheriff, the Area Agency on Aging and all members the El Paso Extreme
Weather Task Force are organizing a fan drive and fundraiser this coming Friday.
Please
help us protect needy families from the heat by promoting the event. A small $10
donation is enough to buy a fan and could make the difference in saving a life!
What: Fundraiser and Fan Drive
When: Friday,
July 21, 2006 from 6:00 AM until 12:00 PM
Where: King's Aire
1035
Kessler St.
Fan drive cont. page 2
Why: To collect money and fans to help needy
families and individuals to beat the heat.
We
are also urging El Pasoans that are 65 years of age or older needing a fan to
call the County Attorney's Elder Protection Unit at
546-2239 or the Area Agency on Aging at 533-0998.
