Join
The Austin
Diagnostic Clinic and
KXAN in
supporting the Keep Austin Cool Campaign
benefiting
Family Eldercare. Family
Eldercare provides essential services for
elders, adults with disabilities and those
who care for them. Donated fans are
given to low income elderly, families with
children, and frail neighbors who need help
to beat the summer’s heat.
A donation of
$12.50 covers the cost of one fan and helps
save lives. In 1990, the Annual Summer Fan
Drive was initiated to collect and
distribute fans and air conditioners to
low-income older adults, people with
disabilities, and families with children in
Travis and surrounding counties, and to
raise funds for the provision of other
essential services. Since the program’s
inception, more than 23,000 households have
been served with more than 55,000 fans and
600 air conditioners.
Last year ADC physicians, staff and patients raised and
collected over $2500.00 and 70 fans at our drop-off locations in
2007.
With
this year's early heat wave the need for
fans will be urgent in the
Central Texas community. The Austin
Diagnostic Clinic is proud to once again
partner with Family Eldercare in this
important, life-saving program. ADC
will accept donations and fans from June 1
through August 31, 2008.
