Targeting: Education and Medical Access
With over 80 children in their care, providing electricity to power their laundry room, kitchen, computer lab, recreation room are a constant burden. The average electric bill for the home is $1000.00 USD per month $12,000 a year. By purchasing a substation, they can reduce their bill by more than a half, and sell excess energy back to the government! This project will allow them to save over $6,000.00 per year and use the savings for direct needs- such as education fees and medical costs. Here is a link to the substation quote directly from the home substationquote.
Below is some recent video footage of the kids at the home!
