What: A devastating earthquake struck Chile early Saturday, toppling
homes, collapsing bridges and plunging trucks into the fractured
earth. A tsunami set off by the magnitude-8.8 quake threatened
every nation around the Pacific Ocean - roughly a quarter of the
globe.

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
people affected by this tragedy. 100% of your donation goes to
the recipient charity, and the donation appears as a charge on
your carrier bill, standard rates may apply.

Who: There are several organizations that are responding to this
urgent need with mobile-giving efforts, including the
following:

Text the word "CHILE" to 20222 to donate $10
On behalf of World Vision

Text the word "CHILE" to 52000 to donate $10
On behalf of the Salvation Army

For more information on these various campaigns, a list of
approved Application Service Providers and how mobile giving

of the Mobile Giving Foundation, is available for questions and
comments regarding mobile giving.
