7 ways you can use Mobile to donate to Haiti relief efforts

This past fall at the inaugural mobile innovation week in Toronto, the CWTA announced the formation of  Mobile Giving Foundation Canada which enables Canadian consumers to “text to donate” using their mobile device to registered Canadian charities.

With the recent devastation in Haiti, Canadians can use their mobile device to donate $5 or $10 by simply texting a keyword to a specific shortcode. This one-time charge will be added to your next wireless bill or subtracted from your pre-paid account.

100% of each donation will go to the donor’s chosen charity. Service is available on most carriers.
