Local members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local Union 1 recently conducted free electrical wiring repairs at the Safe House For Women Inc. in Cape Girardeau.
In addition, the union members installed wiring and fixtures for new ceiling lights, installed a motion detector light outside and repaired a street light in back of the house.
Need for repairs were discovered last month when a free electrical wiring inspection land hygiene supplies were donated to the shelter for abused women by The Quality Connection, a program of IBEW, based in St. Louis, and the St. Louis Chapter of National Electrical Contractors Association.
The Quality Connection donated the wiring inspection, repairs and installations to the Safe House.
