Step up and help form a fan brigade for seniors

| June 6, 2016 9:57 AM

The Lake City Center is asking for donations of new or clean, gently used fans to distribute to their seniors.

“A lot of our people are living in trailers and don’t have air conditioning. Many are on limited income and just can’t afford to buy a fan,” said Kris Wright, who coordinates the Meals on Wheels program for the Lake City Center.

This is the third year the center has distributed donated fans to grateful recipients. In the past, they have combined the donation with their Meals on Wheels program, which delivers fresh food and drinks to the homes. In this way, the center’s volunteers help ensure clients stay cool, hydrated, and healthy.

Fans can be dropped off at the Lake City Center at 1916 Lakewood Drive, Coeur d’ Alene. For more information, call Kris at (208) 667-4628.
