The Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad (ICE) said it has raised 125 million for Haitian relief through a donation program via cellular text messages.

Those interested in donating through text messages must send a text message to the number 5201 in order to donate 1.000, 5205 to donate 5,000 or 5210 to pledge 10,000.

The Costa Rican Red Cross will be responsible for administering the funds.
