It\u2019s an additional option for our donors so we can meet them where they are, whether in person, online, or on their phone. By promoting Text to Donate at our in-person events, sharing on our social media and website, and partnering with a radio station to share on air, we have been able to spread the word to our community. If we didn\u2019t offer a text to donate option, we would be missing out on the generosity of hundreds of people and thousands of dollars in impact.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>It has been a pleasure working with the Mobile Giving team. They\u2019ve made the process incredibly simple for us, and even offering very helpful Q&#038;A webinars so we can learn from other charities and get new ideas for promotion of our campaigns.

MGFC worked with us to find unique ways to customize the donation path for our loyal listeners. Through our on-air broadcast and our social and digital platforms, we\u2019ve invited listeners to turn their enthusiasm for our community radio programming into an easy donation. If a particular song or program resonates with a listener, mobile giving is a great way for them to connect with CKUA and support us. Some listeners donate for the first time through mobile giving. Others are motivated to \u2018top up\u2019 their ongoing support with a one-time mobile donation; still others donate multiple times. This effort has significantly contributed to our year-round fundraising.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>The services that Mobile Giving Foundation Canada offers enhance and support our other ongoing fundraising campaigns.
