Emergency Power Harvey Irma & Maria

Donation protected
Hurricane Harvey and Irma, with historical power and rainfall, are disasters that started with inexorable destructive force and ended with large scale and terrible isolation for the victims. In addition to destruction, major flooding occurred, bridges were washed away, power is out and communications systems failed. Individuals, families and communities are isolated from the rest of the world physically and electronically.

When the power goes out and the water is rising, disaster takes on a whole new frightening personality. Imagine being huddled with your family in a cold, wet, dark room – either on the first floor (if you are lucky), on the second floor, in an attic (a place no one should go) or on the roof in pitch black attempting to escape the floodwater. You have no choice but to spend long, frightening nights waiting for help to arrive. Alkaline batteries start to die and flashlights start to dim or flicker. In the dark how will anyone know you are there; how will you signal for assistance? Cell phones may still have signal, but the power starts to wane and, all too soon, the phone is dead.

What now?! If you have a solar charger and it’s dark, or you are in the attic – no help. If you have a crank charger, you have lots of work ahead of you. However, if you have a GREENIVATIVE (GMAG) Saltwater Powered Battery Recharger – tailored as the DisasterPack  pictured here, you can recharge your batteries Anytime, Anywhere, in Any Weather – Day or Night!
https://www.greenivative.com/products/index.php These lightweight, high energy density devices make electricity by simply adding salt and water to the unit. (It even runs on urine) The unit comes with 4 packs of pre-measured salt, 6 AA rechargeable batteries, 6 AAA rechargeable batteries with AAA to AA adapters, a 4 AA powered USB Charger for your phone and other USB Devices (including a USB Cord and adapters for I 3-4, I 5-6, mini-USB and a micro USB connectors) and step-by-step instructions for use.

Our company - InfraTech, located in Cocoa, FL and maker of the line of GREENIVATIVE Products - has teamed up with Eve Gonzales, who is CEO of Caring Hearts, INC – a Crisis first responder Non-Profit Agency - and her team of disaster seasoned first responders who provide help to victims of major disasters. They go door-to-door (or rubble pile to rubble pile) to help those in need. They are going to be our feet on the ground distributor in the disaster area and will provide DisasterPacks to those in need.

Eve is familiar with our products and has this to say about them. “My name is Eve Gonzales and I am CEO of Trading Post In The Woods and Caring Hearts, Inc. I and my team have responded to 18 major disasters here in the United States and around the world and therefore know how frightening it is for survivors after a devastating event.

We met Allan 3 years ago and tested his unit out in the field for a year to make sure it did exactly what he claimed it would do. We put this unit through the ringer to see if it would endure the rigors of disasters and if it could stand the test of time. Our evaluation and determination of the value and reliability of this device was that the GMAG was and is an amazing product that should be in every household. 

We believe that the GMAG should be on the top of relief supply lists and should be a common household name where everyone knows how to use it.

After any disaster event, when the lights are out, the world around you transforms into a very frightening place especially when doors, windows, and roofs are missing from your place of shelter and security is no longer guaranteed. Having light helps to calm the nerves and helps you to see your way around your new surroundings. But the GMAG is not just about giving you light to see by but also about making sure you have batteries for battery operated nebulizers for individuals who have asthma or COPD, radios so you can hear updates, fans to cool you in the heat of the day or night, recharging cell phone to keep you connected with the outside world, and so much more.

Allan has created a truly life changing product to help you get through the rough moments of a crisis. I and my team love this unit and will not be caught without it. But a product is only as good as the person who stands behind it and our team has come to love and respect Allan and his wife for their determination and assurance to only provide a product of the highest quality and their desire to not only help people get prepared before a disaster occurs but their generosity in helping families get equipped after the storm as well.

We are proud to put our seal of approval and recommendation on this and every unit Allan produces.

The GMAG helped many during the New Orleans flood response and will be life altering for those left behind in the wake of Harvey.

I have seen firsthand the Chaos, devastation, and hardship that families go through during and after a disaster – and I know the true benefit this unit provides. I ask that you please make sure your family is prepared and ask that you also help others whose lives have been turned upside down by this unprecedented catastrophic storm event.”

There are thousands of families in Texas  and Florida who are desperate for the ability to see in the dark, hear a radio, or call for help. You can make a difference in the lives of cold, frightened families huddling in the dark who are losing hope for rescue.

Please give what you can and we will send our DisasterPack Emergency Rechargers for distribution to those in need. You have seen the pictures and the people with despair in their eyes. Help may come too late for some or not at all. Especially if they have no means to communicate their position or need. The time is now.

Please hurry. It will only get worse.
