(MSC News)--The Elderly and the disabled in Atchison and Hiawatha have an opportunity to receive a free fan this Friday.
That word from a press release stating that the fans, donated by Westar Energy, are intended for those eligible without access to air conditioning during hot and humid weather.
In Atchison, fans will be distributed from 9:00 – 11:00 Friday morning at the Atchison Salvation Army Office at 926 Commercial Street.
In Hiawatha, the distribution will happen at 1:30 Friday afternoon at the Northeast Kansas Area Agency on Aging, located at 1803 Oregon Street.
According to the press release, Westar's local donations are part of a $60,000 fan contribution distributed throughout the communities it serves.
Along with elderly and disabled residents, the fans are also available to families with young children. If you meet the eligibility requirement, bring your ID and proof of address at the time of distribution. Each household that qualifies will receive one fan while supplies last.
The Westar Energy In Motion trailer will also be available to provide account assistance and energy efficiency tips.
