SANTAN SUN NEWS STAFF
A Chandler woman was treated to a new pool fence by Fulton Homes and KMLE radio after her mother told them she can’t relax after work because she worries about her kids drowning.
Jessica Hill of the 1100 block of Orchard Lane “works long, strenuous days at a Phoenix hospital to provide for her family, and when she isn’t helping others, she is at home with her two young children,” Fulton Homes said.
“It can be hard to relax after a long day at the hospital with the looming threat of her kids falling into the pool in their backyard. This is why her mother, Donna, nominated Jessica to receive a free pool fence, the company added.
Crews last weekend installed the fence, prompting the company to say Hill and her family can “ease their minds about the safety of their children.”
Now in its 17th consecutive year, Fulton Homes Fence Patrol highlights the importance of always watching children around water, and acts as a reminder that water emergencies can happen in seconds.
“Fulton Homes strongly believes that even close calls can be avoided when the community as a whole puts an emphasis on water safety. We started our Fence Patrol program 17 years ago to put more protective fences around pools with the goal of making Valley families safer,” said company CEO Doug Fulton.
“The dangers are real, and we want to continue doing everything we can to prevent another family tragedy,” he added. “One is one too many.”
Every Tuesday throughout the summer months, a new pool fence will be installed at the home of a needy family, courtesy of Fulton Homes.
