We have bad news, and we need your help.

Last summer we were blown away by our community's generosity when one of our air conditioning units went out. You all rose to the occasion and made sure that the children at BACH had a safe and comfortable place to receive therapy. Unfortunately, our next oldest unit has now gone out. The cost of replacing the unit is $11,600. Will you help us replace this unit as temperatures begin to rise? Any donation, however large or small, is incredibly meaningful to the children at BACH.

Please note--we are working with Prather & Harlan A/C. They are very good to us, and we have been so thankful to have them service all of our HVAC needs for many years.
