Making a Difference: Yes! Air Conditioning and Plumbing & Catholic Charities
The sweltering heat in Las Vegas can sometimes be too much to bear, especially for our more elderly residents. With triple digit temperatures often carrying over into September, it’s important for seniors to have functioning air conditioning in their homes. Yes! Air Conditioning and Plumbing has teamed up with Catholic Charities to make this important issue a priority.
This past summer, Yes! launched its Yes! Cares Senior Program, a community outreach effort offering support and resources to seniors throughout the valley. As part of the program, Yes! technicians have visited homes to change air filters and program thermostats free of charge. Last month, Catholic Charities helped arrange a visit from Yes! for 77-year-old Peggy Hart, who has found it difficult to keep up with daily housework following surgery to fix a broken rib. Peggy and many seniors across the valley sincerely appreciate the efforts of Yes! and Catholic Charities to assist struggling elderly residents so that they can remain healthy and independent.
For many local seniors, getting through the routine of day to day life can be difficult enough under normal circumstances. Throw in a broken air conditioner in triple digit weather and things can literally become a life or death situation. Thankfully, Yes! Air Conditioning and Plumbing and Catholic Charities are doing all they can to help keep things cool.
