EMERGENCY APPEAL IN JULY HEAT

EMERGENCY APPEAL IN JULY HEAT

Ron C., a Catholic convert living on Death Row in Tennessee (17 years), does all he can to help other prisoners and to work for prison reform on many fronts. Right now he is concerned with conditions in prisons where there is no air conditioning or existing air conditioning is inadequate (or turned off at night!). Prison cells have no open windows and prisoners who have health problems are especially at risk. Ron has already raised money for four electric fans which are sold through the Tennessee Inmate Package Program. Two more fans are needed, for two good men who, Ron says, “would never ask anyone for anything.” Each eight-inch fan costs 26.95, and the deadline for ordering them is July 31.

If you can see your way to help with this very corporal work of mercy please let me know by e-mail or phone and send a check for the amount to me at the address below. God bless you!
