To toss onto this, I've been contacted by KatrinaHelp to assist in setting up an ARC like system there - but we really need someone on the ground, in the region, who can set up a SMS->email/web gateway, since the cost of calls will be lower. So, right now, we need to find someone who can do that or who is willing to do that locally in the region. Once again, SMS is working where nothing else is. I've sent out a call on the MobileActive network, but maybe someone in these groups knows someone who isn't afraid to give this a shot to help out in that region.
