Marie Jordan is a single mother and new grandmother who works hard to make ends meet. She had been without an HVAC system to cool and heat her North Carolina home for about two years, partially because she\u2019d spent a lot of money helping her parents with renovating their home in the past, but she was in the process of saving up enough money for it. Then disaster struck.<\/span>First, Hurricane Florence<\/a> hit her home in September of 2018, badly damaging the roof. Then, just a few weeks later, Marie was diagnosed with breast cancer and was forced to use some of the money she\u2019d saved for her heating and cooling system on her treatments.<\/span>Most of us can only imagine the kind of sinking feeling that must come with putting so much effort into a plan, only to have it ripped away when a disaster strikes\u2014or, heaven forbid, two disasters. Luckily, however, things were about to change.<\/span>\"\"<\/span>Photo: Facebook\/Marie Jordan<\/a><\/span>
\n<\/span>Marie\u2019s son, Brian Jordan, was looking out for her and nominated her for the ASR Cares program, wherein ASR\/Rescue Rooter<\/a> donate a free HVAC system to someone in need.<\/span>\u201cShe would give the shirt off her back to someone who she thought needed it more,\u201d says Brian. \u201cGiving her this HVAC unit would allow her the comfort she deserves while battling cancer.\u201d<\/span>\"\"<\/span>Photo: Facebook\/Marie Jordan<\/a><\/span>
\n<\/span>Of course, the company was very touched by Marie\u2019s story of tragedy and the selflessness that kept her from getting ahead years earlier. So they donated a free heating and cooling system to Marie for her home, allowing her to put what\u2019s left of her savings toward other repairs, like her roof.<\/span>\"\"<\/span>Photo: Facebook\/Marie Jordan<\/a><\/span>\u201cI\u2019m so grateful and thankful that I was the chosen winner to get this new heat and air system. I\u2019m just so excited,\u201d says Marie<\/a>. \u201cThis is one of the things that I can check off my list. I don\u2019t have worry about it. I can continue with my chemotherapy for the next couple of months knowing that I can come home to a comfortable house.\u201d<\/span>Marie says she can\u2019t even put into words how grateful she is for ASR\u2019s help with the new HVAC system. The company will continue to donate these systems twice a year to people in need.<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0Share on Facebook<\/a><\/span>
