TEXTing is caring
Recent development is where people can text on their mobile phones in order to help non-profits deliver support/funds to ground units. One example is how people can text a varieties of things for Haitian support after the devastating earthquakes. Now some people who are not as tech savy and don't always read the fine print can get themselves in trouble by not understanding the contract of texting to help. One example is where this girl was letting people know via Facebook to text HAITI to one of the support numbers. She thought someone else would be making a 10$ donation for her and didn't realize that it was going to her phone bill. She was boasting that she texted it over a 200 times making her donation of 2000$.
