In attempt to combat the high heat and humidity we’ve been experiencing, Mecklenburg County has just announced it will be giving away free box fans to residents.
The new program is designed for senior citizens over the age of 60 and anyone under the age of 60 who is on disability.
The free fans are now available for pickup at 7 different locations throughout our city.
