If someone meets the criteria above, then the North Texas Air Conditioning Initiative can help!
The North Texas Air Conditioning Initiative provides qualifying individuals in the greater Dallas/Fort Worth area who lack residential air conditioning with free window unit air conditioners as a way to relieve families from the intense summer heat. Installation is covered by the program, but the recipient must be able to pay for the electrical costs associated with operation of the air conditioning unit.
If your organization serves individuals who meet the above criteria – or you believe you will become aware of individuals who meet this criteria, please contact the North Texas Air Conditioning Initiative for more information.
*Although not a requirement, priority should be given to individuals who are elderly, infirmed, or have young children
** The individual must agree to be present when the installation occurs.
