Project Swan (Stay Warmer At Night)


Project Swan Will Make It's Debut This Coming Friday November 27th. Yes I Know It's Black Friday, But It Was Planned That Way. The Busiest Shopping Day Of The Year The Robin Hood Foundation Of Danville Will Have Their Big Box Truck Parked At The Danville Wal Mart Parking Lot Beginning At 6:00am. Why? Why Not!
If Every Bed Were To Have A Blanket On It The Resident Could Lower The Thermostat At Night Saving $$ That Could Go Toward Other Uses. It Has Been Said You Can Save 3% For Every Degree You Turn Down Your Thermostat. By Placing A Blanket On Every Bed And Lower It 5 Degree's Saves You 15% Each Month You Use Your Furnace. Here In The Midwest We Have Our Furnace On At least Four Months, Maybe Five. If My Math Is Correct That's At least 60 % Or More Over The Course Of A Winter.
The Robin Hood Foundation Of Danville Will Gladly Accept Your New Or Gently Used Blankets. These Blankets Will Be Distributed The Following Week To Local Residents Who Are Unable To Afford Them.
The Success Of This Program Depends On You! If You Are Unable To Come Up To Wal Mart This Friday Just Call 442-7586 And Arrangements Can Be Made To Have Them Picked Up.
