Through its annual Beat the Heat campaign, the company partnered with 38 community agencies to distribute fans to customers in 34 cities across Southeast Texas. Since launching the program in 2000, Entergy Texas has donated more than 33,500 fans across its service area. For households without access to reliable air conditioning, box fans can provide a simple, cost-effective way to improve comfort and reduce indoor heat stress. The annual fan donations are one part of Entergy Texas’ broader commitment to helping customers stay safe while connecting them with bill assistance, energy efficiency programs and flexible payment options throughout the summer. “Our goal is to meet customers where they are with solutions that make a real difference,” said Stuart Barrett, vice president of customer service for Entergy Texas. “Whether that’s providing a fan during the hot summer months, improving a home’s energy efficiency or connecting someone with bill assistance, we’re focused on helping customers stay safe, comfortable and prepared throughout the year.” The annual fan donations build on several customer-focused initiatives Entergy Texas has delivered this summer to help customers stay cool and save money, including: - [Providing no-cost weatherization and cooling upgrades](https://www.entergy.com/news/entergy-texas-delivers-weatherization-and-cooling-upgrades-to-help-cut-costs-on-summer-energy-bills) that improve home energy efficiency and lower energy use. - [Contributing $500,000 in bill payment assistance](https://www.entergy.com/news/entergy-texas-provides-500000-in-summer-bill-relief-to-help-vulnerable-customers) to help eligible seniors and customers with disabilities with summer energy expenses. - [Expanding bill management tools, payment options and energy-saving resources](https://www.entergy.com/news/entergy-texas-helping-customers-stay-cool-and-save-money-with-bill-management-tools-and-resources) to give customers more ways to manage their bills.
