On the first anniversary of the devastating earthquake that struck Haiti, the Mobile Giving Foundation (MGF) would like to remind everyone that help is still needed to assist in rebuilding infrastructure, constructing homes and fighting diseases. The quickest, easiest way to provide monetary relief to those affected by the earthquake in Haiti is mobile giving. By texting a keyword to a designated short code via a mobile phone, a micro-donation of $5 or $10 can be made to aid the millions of people still recovering from this tragedy. One-hundred percent (100%) of your donation goes to the recipient charity, and the donation appears as a charge on your carrier bill, standard rates may apply. |
