As summer temperatures continue to soar, we’re facing a critical challenge, one that threatens our ability to serve our community. Our rooftop chiller is failing, and we need your help to replace it.
We’ve already spent nearly $50,000 on AC repairs this year. Despite that investment, we continue to face the very real threat of a system failure. Expensive fixes aren’t sustainable. They place a huge strain on our budget and divert funds from core programs.
To address this, we launched the 60 Day Chiller Challenge to raise $325,000 for a permanent solution. That was two weeks ago. Today, your support is more crucial than ever. By upgrading our chiller, we can ensure uninterrupted access to our programs, regardless of the temperature outside.
Why This Matters
Neighborhood House has been a cornerstone of the Southbridge community since 1927, providing transformational programs that wrap around children and their families. We can’t allow a failing AC system to get in the way of delivering these essential services. The stakes are too high.
The Countdown Is On
With recent heatwaves pushing our aging chiller to its limits and costly repair bills piling up, we need your help to stay cool. $325,000 is a big number, but we believe in the power of our community. With 45 days to go, we can get this done.
Your donation isn't just about making our building comfortable — it's about continuity and compassion. It’s about making sure that Neighborhood House remains a refuge of support and opportunity, no matter how warm it is.
Please don’t wait to give. Every contribution brings us closer to our goal and helps prevent more costly repairs down the road. Join us in this important mission to keep Neighborhood House cool, operational, and ready to serve for generations to come.
