(NAPSI)-Thanks to an innovative program, homeowners can help sick children by making their own home healthier and more comfortable.
A leading heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) manufacturer is making it possible for consumers to help kids with life-threatening medical conditions by purchasing HVAC equipment for their home.
During its spring promotion, Luxaire® Heating and Air Conditioning is encouraging homeowners to participate in the Make-A-Wish® program by donating all or a portion of their rebate to a local Make-A-Wish chapter.
The HVAC manufacturer has been supporting the Make-A-Wish Foundation®, the largest wish-granting charity in the world, for four years. To date, the company has raised more than $1 million for Make-A-Wish and has granted scores of wishes.
The wishes granted range from swing sets and room makeovers to trips to Disney World, the installation of central air conditioning and a cruise. The company has also donated equipment to a number of Make-A-Wish facilities.
Consumers can also contribute to Make-A-Wish by getting involved in events organized by local Luxaire dealers.
In some instances, the HVAC manufacturer's distributors and dealers are partnering with Minor League Baseball organizations to offer Make-A-Wish nights at minor league ballparks. Many of the participating minor league ball clubs also organize their own fundraising activities. This offers consumers another avenue to support the work of their local Make-A-Wish Foundation.
"Our involvement with Make-A-Wish is a way that we can connect with the people in our communities, inviting our neighbors and customers to help us bring joy to children in need," said Tim Lashar, Luxaire brand marketing manager. "It underscores our commitment to the families we serve."
As a corporate sponsor, the HVAC manufacturer donates a portion of the sale of every product toward the company's minimum annual contribution of $250,000 to Make-A-Wish. In addition, dollars raised by the company's combined sales efforts support local Make-A-Wish chapters located in dealer markets throughout the United States.

By donating their rebate on HVAC equipment, consumers can help make a dream come true for a Make-A-Wish child.
