Welcome to the Rotary Club of Lake Nona! We are honored to have you join us on this journey of Service Above Self.💙💛🌎
This week we’re proud to shine the spotlight on Samantha Velasco, Co-Owner of Cool Lemonade Air & Heat!
Samantha and her team are passionate about keeping Central Florida families comfortable, but what truly sets them apart is their heart for serving the community. Through their business and their commitment to Rotary, they are always looking for ways to make a meaningful impact.
One incredible example is their partnership with Lennox through the Feel The Love® program. They are currently accepting nominations to provide a FREE air conditioning system to a deserving individual or family in our community!
Do you know someone who could use this blessing? They’re looking for:
Veterans
Seniors
Nonprofit organizations
Or anyone who consistently puts others before themselves and could benefit from a new A/C system.
Nominations are open through August 31, 2026, and the selected recipient will receive their new Lennox system during installation week October 3–11, 2026.
Help us spread the word and recognize Samantha and the entire Cool Lemonade Air & Heat team for using their business to make a lasting difference in our community.
