“The need for quality indoor air is more critical than ever. We are hopeful that our efforts to improve the air in these safe environments will help more families have the confidence to let children return to the clubs and take advantage of their amazing programs,” said Anthony Perera, founder of Air Pros USA.

Perera is also an Advisory Council member for BGCBC and aligns closely with their mission to enable youth to reach their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible citizens.

“We are constantly working to make the clubs safe for children to pursue their passions and this donation gives us peace of mind that we will all be breathing cleaner air as we welcome back kids and teens,” said Matt Organ, of Boys and Girls Clubs of Broward County. “We’re thankful to Anthony and his partners for their generous contributions.”

To make the donation possible, Perera teamed up with Gemaire Distributors, a wholesale distributor of air conditioning and heating equipment and related parts and supplies in the HVAC/R industry, and Fresh Aire-UV, an award-winning commercial and residential UV light and carbon products provider.

“I am extremely happy to have found business partners and friends at Gemaire Distributors and Fresh-Aire UV and grateful they stepped up for the community to help make this idea become a reality.”

UV light technology complements air conditioning systems to improve indoor air quality by neutralizing viruses and other microbes as the air circulates through the ventilation system. UV light systems are tested and validated against surface bacteria, viruses, mold, and fungus, and have been shown to achieve up to 99.999996% reduction on microorganisms.
