Patricia Alexander, Case Manager for Lamar County Human Resource Center, is shown accepting summertime fans from Sam Martin, Paramedic.
Paris EMS uses 100% of the money collected during their annual Fill-The-Boot campaign to help Lamar County children and seniors. During the summer, they buy 50+ fans, over $1000 worth from Wal-Mart, and donate them to the Lamar County Human Resource Council for distribution to the Meals-On-Wheels elderly and families who do not have air conditioning.
“With the heat index nearing 110 deg, these folks need some relief, and we hope this helps a little” says Martin.
