The Power Bank Project was founded by the team at Dynamic Power Supply and is dedicated to empowering individuals experiencing homelessness through technology access. By distributing portable chargers and building community support, we aim to create a safer, more connected world for the vulnerable.

Complete the form below with your contact and mailing information.
U.S. addresses only. You may use a shelter, organization, PO Box, or trusted person’s address if they can accept the package for you. Include any “Care of” name needed for delivery.
Limited Monthly Availability
We have a set number of power banks available each month. Once that month’s supply runs out, distribution pauses until the following month.
If we’re unable to fulfill your request before supplies run out, you’ll automatically receive priority on the next month’s list. You do not need to submit another request. Requests carry forward until fulfilled, subject to availability.
Thank you for your patience as we work with limited resources to help as many people as possible.
Power bank requests are temporarily paused
Our available funding for October has been allocated. Requests will reopen on November 1 when our next round of funding becomes available.
Please return then to submit your request. Thank you for supporting the Power Bank Project.
We believe in empowering individuals through access to essential resources.
Building a network of support for those in need is at the heart of our mission.
We strive to raise awareness about homelessness and the importance of connectivity.
Your support can make a difference.
The Power Bank Project is a humanitarian outreach initiative dedicated to providing portable chargers to individuals experiencing homelessness. We believe that access to power is essential for safety, communication, and opportunities.
You can support us by donating to our cause, volunteering your time, or spreading the word about our mission in your community. Every contribution helps us provide essential power supplies to those in need.
We currently serve people within the United States only and require a U.S. mailing address.
You do not need a permanent home address. You may use a shelter, organization, or trusted person’s address, provided they agree to accept the package for you. Multiple people may share a mailing address; the limit applies to each person.
Portable chargers help individuals experiencing homelessness connect with family, apply for jobs, and access important services. This access can significantly improve their safety and overall quality of life.
You can donate directly through our website by clicking on the 'Donate' button. Your generosity helps us purchase portable chargers and fund outreach programs.
Each person may receive up to two power banks during a 12-month period, including replacements. Your 12-month period begins on the date you receive your first power bank, not January 1. This limit helps us reach as many people as possible.
Our power banks are intended for small personal electronics, such as cell phones and other compatible USB-powered devices. They are not designed to power large equipment, appliances, or electric scooters. We cannot guarantee laptop charging or compatibility with every device.
Power banks must be for the recipient’s personal use. Each person requesting one should email us directly from their own email address. We do not currently fulfill requests for resale or redistribution.
We send whichever power banks we have available at the time. We cannot guarantee a particular brand, model, capacity, or charging speed.
Finding a safe place to sleep while experiencing homelessness can be challenging, especially in urban environments. This practical guide covers how to evaluate potential sleeping spots, identify ground and overhead hazards, set up a simple tarp shelter, and prepare for a night outdoors. Learn strategies for reducing avoidable risks, staying dry, and making temporary outdoor sleeping arrangements safer and more manageable.
