Westar energy will team up with the Salvation Army on Friday, June 30th from 10:00 am until 1:00 pm to distribute fans to elderly and disabled people.

Fans will be distributed to people without access to air conditioning or other means of staying cool during hot and humid weather.

Fans will be distributed at the Geary County DMV Office – Courthouse Annex, 139 E 8th Street, Junction City.

Teaming up with the Salvation Army, Westar will have fan distributions in various locations throughout the month. Westar’s local gift of fans is part of a $60,000 fan contribution that equaled out to 4,600 fans. Quadrupling the number from the previous year, these fans are meant to help relieve some of the sweltering summer heat for elderly and disabled members of the community who do not have a fan or air conditioning in their home or the means to purchase one.

The Westar Energy In Motion trailer will also be on hand and staffed by customer service specialists who can provide account assistance, energy efficiency tips, and even a bottle of water.
