Mission Cool Breeze update #1 Beaufort County S.C. This weekend.

102 in the shade today

a window unit in Beaufort









He is 78 years old living in 1 room of this apartment . He is a stroke victim and confined to a wheel chair. When I arrived at his house in the upper morning the temp was 81 and climbing. He had a small window unit but it was hard for him to get to the unit to change the temp because he had a hard time getting in his wheel chair to roll across the room to turn it down or up as the case may be. So most of the time he just waited on the meals on wheels guy to stop by and make the adjustment when he dropped off the lunch each day.

I was able to spend most of the day moving AC units around and adding the AC unit that had a remote control to cool the 1 room he was living in. Now... He is able to change the temp. in the room... from his bed.

I also was able to close off the other part of the apartment so he was not cooling the parts of the house that he could not get to.

At the end of the day the temp was 73 and he had full control of his environment without going across the room to adjust the temp. Just 8 hours work and things were better for him.

Think about this the next time you walk outside and the heat takes your breath away. There are people out there that live outside or in houses with no way to cool things down. They live, eat, sleep in this heat all day every day. I met a guy yesterday that told us that when it got too hot at home he went down to the river and spent the day so he could just stay in the water to be cool. Please consider your situation... Could you help someone ??

Consider this scripture while you think on it.....

Mark 9: 41For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.
What do you say??? Could you be a blessing? Would you be a blessing???
