Haiti Relief – How You Can Help
Posted on: January 25, 2010 – Filed under: Portland
We’ve all been moved by the news, stories and images coming from quake ravaged Haiti. MoMoPDX is banding together with other chapters of Mobile Monday to direct local members of the mobile community to worthy organizations seeking money to help rescue and rebuild Haiti. The board of Mobile Monday Portland has selected two organizations that have either a local or mobile industry element, and who are known to be trusted and important organizations in disaster recover and reconstruction. If you haven’t yet donated to a relief organization, or if you can still give more, MoMoPDX urges you to consider donating to:
Backed by technology companies such as Intel, Cisco and Microsoft, NetHope’s mission has a clear focus: to be a catalyst for collaboration among international humanitarian organizations. By working together to solve problems and share knowledge, NetHope helps ensure that its members have access to the best information and communication technology and practices when serving people in the developing world. NetHope is currently in Haiti helping restore communications so that all the different aid organizations in Haiti can communicate locally and with the outside world.
