- Terms of your gift:
Thank you for contributing to a Mobile Giving Foundation campaign. Your donation
is to the Mobile Giving Foundation (MGF), a 501c(3) public charity, which re-grants
your donation to the charity(ies) you designated through your text message donation.
Your donation will appear as Mobile Giving Foundation on your wireless statement.
Per our agreement with all organizations, and in accordance with the Internal Revenue
Service, the MGF has the exclusive legal control over all donation amounts. If an
organization fails to comply with the MGF Standards for Participation, the MGF reserves
the right to disseminate donation amounts to a complementary organization.
Please consult your tax or financial advisor for specific questions about your gift.
All MGF approved organizations qualify for 501c(3) status and donations should be
tax deductible. Please save your wireless operator bill or print a donation receipt
at www.mobilegiving.org/SMS_Donations.
Your donation is immediate and irrevocable. Accordingly, the MGF cannot refund or
cancel your donation. Please check with your wireless operator for operator specific
refund policies.
- Payment to Designated Organization:
The MGF collects donations paid by you from your wireless operator. In some instances,
your donation will be deducted from your pre-paid balance with your wireless operator.
The wireless operators remit 100% of your donation to the MGF. Within 30 days of
the MGF’s receipt of collected donations from the wireless operator, the MGF grants
100% of the donation to the designated organization. (There may be some designated
organizations that have permitted the MGF to grant 5-10% of each donation to the
MGF to cover administrative costs associated with the MGF’s mission.)
