The chill of winter has been felt across South Jersey this season. With several inches of snow blanketing our region and frigid temperatures settling in, the team at Comfort Now has been on a mission to deliver the gift of a warm home to several families in need. Over the past month, Bob McAllister, along with sons Casey and R.J., have awarded new heating systems to residents in Atlantic and Cape May County, as part of the company’s Holiday Heater Giveaway.
Two of this year’s recipients, Marcus Stotts and Lisa Reyes of Egg Harbor City, received the exciting news just a few weeks ago. The couple is currently in the process of adopting their nephew, who was in foster care. Stotts and Reyes received a newly installed boiler, valued at $13,400.
Additionally, the Comfort Now team offered much-needed heating repairs for another recipient, Tim Kirk, saving him over $740 in the process.
The annual Holiday Heater Giveaway has helped dozens in South Jersey, ensuring that families have a warm home throughout the season. What started over ten years ago has turned into a tradition, with a simple mission of giving back and helping others in need. “We live in the community and we want to take care of people within our community, and we want to lead by example”, says Casey.
