Advocates of Love Children's Center Electrical Restoration Project

The Advocates of Love is an orphanage located in the small town of los Corrales Sanchez, Samana, Dominican Republic that cares for around 20 boys and girls. In August of this year the entire electrical system suffered a major burnout due to a storm. 
This resulted in the entire compound with no electricity, and permanent damage to much of the electrical system. Many of the ceiling fans in the children’s bedrooms were destroyed and over 200 pounds of food that was in their freezer spoiled. Much of the extent of the damage  was due to the poor quality of wiring and other electrical components originally installed in the buildings. 
Hope for the Dominican Republic was able to find a knowledgeable and skilled Electrician and with the support of our donors, we were able to pay for much of the complex to be rewired with proper wire cable, circuit breakers and other electrical components. In early October, the project was completed.
