Katie Maxfield reports on the mGive blog that several of their clients have launched new mobile phone giving campaigns this Fall. Mobile giving campaigns are now live for Susan G. Komen for the Cure, The Foundation for the Advancement of
Women Now, Dystonia Medical Research Foundation, Call + Response, Safe
Blood for Africa, and Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy Foundation. Katie's blog post includes all the short codes to make a mobile donation, so if you haven't tried mobile giving yet, now's your chance to be amazed and to imagine how this could work at your nonprofit agency. The blog post also talks about each nonprofit's plans for promoting their mobile giving campaign in order to reach untapped audiences of potential donors. For example, Komen will be doing live promotion at a NASCAR event on October 11th, where attendants will be encouraged to mgive $5 by texting KOMEN to 90999.

Hi Michael
Thanks for picking this up!! We are extremely excited about these 5 new campaigns. We have been working with the carriers to smooth out the on-boarding process and now are looking at a shorter time to market.
We have 7 more campaigns coming up and should be live within the next 2 weeks and even more in the pipe!
I believe we have about 40 campaigns live now! We are the only company with campaigns live in the US.
I'll confirm some more info on the campaigns and follow up here shortly.
