Sheriff’s Office launches 3rd annual Cooling Project
Sheriff Tony Chavis is continuing his annual Cooling Project to assist senior citizens and families in need during the summer heat throughout Darlington County.
“It is already getting warm, and it is important we remember those who need a helping hand staying cool this summer,” stated Chavis.
“With the public’s support we have collected hundreds of fans the previous two years, and I look forward to continuing this partnership to help others.”
Donations of new air conditioners, fans and cases of bottled water will be collected until June 15 at the Sheriff’s Office at 1621 Harry Byrd Highway in Darlington.
Individuals who donate an air conditioner or a fan will be entered for a chance to win a flatscreen TV.
To have donations picked up, call the office at (843) 398-4501.
