The TerryReport, working through the Haiti Coordination Group (NGO) which we established, is arranging for hand powered cell phone chargers to be shipped to Haiti. These are recently designed and available chargers, which were first displayed at the recent CES in Las Vegas in early January.

The chargers , once they are in Port au Prince, will be given away free to NGOs and relief workers generally. If there are any available after that, they will be offered to news media or others providing information on coordination efforts in Haiti.

More details will follow on these handheld, hand powered phone chargers. If the power remains off for a long time in Haiti, they could be in high demand for purchase, but the goal right now is to give them away to assist in the recovery effort.

These hand powered phone chargers are being donated by YoGen, the manufacturer. Their donation and transportation was coordinated by Brotman Winter Fried Communications of Falls Church, Va. Transport into Haiti is being facilitated by Digicel, the cell phone carrier.
