  Our losses are estimated to be around $400,000 in the fire and we are hoping to recover that through this campaign.

  This may have nothing to do with hate. Looking at the pictures involved, there were wires installed. Could be a fault wiring problem. Now the question is, was there electricity being run through those wires? If not, then I would be very suspicious and be more believing that this was arson.
