Stay Hydrated

Challenge

Health workers are scrambling all over the country to treat and help the victims of the disease. With the limited resources they have, we need to promote a way to keep them alive while waiting for help to arrive.

solutions

Promote coconuts as IV alternatives

03

How Are We Going to Do This?

Promote the benefits of Coconuts, and how to use it for first aid


1. Give away coconuts (husks removed already) with a short message


Message: Text "FIRST AID" to "288"


Text message will be received to their cellphones with instructions on how to use the coconuts as IV

3. Working with Ushahidi, we will create a mobile app that we can provide health workers of data on where the concentration of the disease spreads (like live billboard, but only for health workers). This will only be sent via text message that will contain # of people that needs help, and where exactly.


Example of text message (to Health workers): 5 victims (City), within 3 miles away from you.

4. Umbrellas can also be given away that will include the text message. Message: (visuals) Text "FIRST AID" to "288"
