Solar Generators For Puerto Rico

Donation protected

As many know, Hurricane Maria left massive island wide destruction in Puerto Rico. Hospitals are without power or water across the region and other vital services are out due to a power grid collapse.

Many families are struggling in the rural areas of Puerto Rico with no ability to communicate to the outside world. Many are suffering from lack of refrigerated insulin and other cooling medical needs.

There are also many repairs to be done and many people were below paycheck to paycheck living BEFORE the hurricane. The area will need copious amounts of help in the coming months. The infrastructure is destroyed (bridges, sewer, plumbing etc) with little reason to believe they will be repaired soon. Our delay in posting this fund was due to sorting out our logistics first because of the above.

This fund drive is a two-fold purpose.

Our first goal is to bring power to individual communities with endless solar power in the form of Solar Generators. We will be delivering these generators personally to avoid the logistical difficulties that currently exist. This mission has some personal feel as half of our family has been disconnected from the outside world.

The second goal is to provide clean water using filtered pumps. With the collapse of the water systems and possible contamination with sewer, flood water, chemicals etc, this service is vital. Puerto Rico is in the tropics, the heat alone requires you to stay hydrated.

At Sunnyside Solar of Brattleboro, we felt it a waste not to put our skills to this project.

We will keep a journal and photo log during this effort. For anyone interested, we will keep you in the loop with deliveries and results.
