The Mid-Missouri heat is hard to beat, especially for those without air conditioning. The heat is especially hard on the elderly, pregnant women and young children. Lend a hand in cooling your community! Join KOMU 8's Fan Club and help those less fortunate beat the heat this summer by donating a new fan at any of these locations.

Pickup and distribution of the fans will be handled by the Voluntary Action Center in Columbia and the United Way of Central Missouri in Jefferson City.
