Episode Details

Project Cool 2026 smashed its goal, collecting nearly 500 box fans for seniors in San Antonio—way beyond the original 350 target. Born from a heartfelt 2016 challenge to honor Ben Godina’s dad, the initiative paused after his mom’s dementia diagnosis but roared back stronger in 2020. Now, thanks to a city-wide outpouring of generosity—volunteers, businesses, and everyday donors—it’s delivering real relief to seniors battling South Texas heat. Ben and Amanda credit every local hero who helped turn a small idea into a massive, cooling movement. One fan at a time, San Antonio’s community proves that compassion and collaboration can create powerful, tangible change.
