Text-to-Donate

ipsh! can arrange for nonprofits to work together with carriers to arrange for a direct “text to donate” campaign, wherein customers can text a certain keyword (such as ‘DONATE’) to a shortcode assigned to the nonprofit to instantly donate a fixed sum (such as $5 or $10) to that organization.  The donation can be billed through the carriers so that it will appear on the customer’s monthly statement.

Viral Campaigns

ipsh! has the ability to create a viral mobile campaign tailored specifically to the needs of your nonprofit organization, enabling current supporters of your work and current donators to spread the word about your efforts using their mobile phones.  For example, an individual who has generously made a donation via your website might have the opportunity to send a SMS message to four or five of their friends from your site, encouraging them to check out your latest newsletter or perhaps sending specific facts related to the causes you support.

Regular Alerts
suggested ipsh! solution: ipsh Managed Messenger

To keep your nonprofit organization and its work at the forefront of your contributors’ minds, ipsh! can help you build a database with the mobile phone numbers of your supporters. This will enable you to send out regular SMS “blasts” with important information relating to your work.  For example, you might want to send out a monthly alert updating supporters who opt-in to the service on your continued work rebuilding Gulf Coast communities destroyed by Hurricane Katrina.
