How To Donate Via Mobile To Help Victims Of The Chile Earthquake
Mobile Marketing Watch has a great round-up of all the methods by which you can now donate via mobile to help victions of the Chile Earthquake. Many of these methods are using the same shortcode system the Red Cross implemented with great success for victims of the Haiti Earthquake just a few weeks ago. Interestingly though, I still have yet to see if the Red Cross is using the same mobile shortcode system for Chile that they used for Haiti. Twitter has been very active with tweets saying “Text CHILE to 90999″ assuming that the Red Cross has this setup, but I have yet to see this officially announced online anywhere. I’ll update this post if/when I ever hear back from the Red Cross. In the meantime though, here’s the round-up of other shortcodes mentioned above:
• Text “CHILE” to 20222 to donate $10 on behalf of World Vision.
• Text “CHILE” to 52000 to donate $10 on behalf of the Salvation Army
• Text “SAVE” to 20222 to donate $10 on behalf of Save the Children Federation, Inc.
• Text “CHILE” to 85944 to donate $10 on behalf of International Medical Corp.
• Text “4CHILE” to 50555 to donate $10 on behalf of Convoy of Hope
• Text “CHILE” to 50555 to donate $10 on behalf of Friends of the World Program
• Text “REBUILD” to 50555 to donate $10 on behalf of Friends of the Operation USA
