The Frigidaire 28,000 BTU The Army Of Good ordered for the Mansion kitchen arrived yesterday, and right in a middle of one of the worst heat waves on record. Because of some life issues, the staff can’t instill the new AC until Monday, but there were happy kitchen workers and residents when it arrived.

This will make a huge difference to the hard-working and much loved kitchen workers who have been holding up through some searing days in the kitchen. This will make a lot of people more comfortable, and that will ripple down through the whole facility. Thank you so much for your support.

You can support the Mansion work we are doing by sending your donations either to my post office box, P.O. Box 205, Cambridge, N.Y., 12816 or via Paypal, [email protected].

The Mansion is a Medicaid facility, the government does not pay for the room and board of the residents, rather than for services to care for them. Federal subsidies have been drastically cut and budgets are tightening.

Our work has done a lot to fill in some of the holes the residents face, from  portable air conditioners to clothes to soap and disinfectants, to books, CD’s, letters and art supplies. The Mansion residents think you are all angels and good fairies. Something to that. Thanks for helping with the air conditioner.
