SUPPORTED BY COMMUNITY PARTNERS

Kern County's most vulnerable population, our "seniors", utilize local senior centers during the extreme heat to attempt to stay cool. Senior nutrition sites serving as cooling centers open only when temps exceed 105 locally!  Other locations used to escape the hot temperatures are still closed due to COVID-19, or very slowly beginning to open, but are discouraging gethering in large groups for extended lengths of time.  These closures can be physically devastating for our seniors, many with severe health issues (respiratory, heart conditions and more), putting them at dramatic risk for complications caused by the heat and their inability to remain cool.  Limited income levels , taken into consideration, also force them to choose carefully the amount of time they can use their in-home air conditioners or swamp coolers .  Fans are essential to their well-being!!!!

THEY need YOUR support this year more than ever!!!
