Telecom supply official txt-to-donate service for New Zealand Red Cross 2011 Earthquake Appeal
Telecom has partnered with the New Zealand Red Cross to supply the official txt-to-donate fundraising service for the New Zealand Red Cross 2011 Earthquake Appeal.
Users of all New Zealand mobile networks can text 4419 to make an automatic $3 donation to the Appeal.
New Zealanders can also include a message of support for the people of Canterbury which will be publicly broadcast.
To ensure 100% of the donation will make its way to the Appeal, Telecom is providing this service free-of-charge.
Telecom has worked together with Vodafone, 2degrees and Run the Red who have also agreed to waive revenue and costs on this service.
Please ask the bill payer first before donating.
Telecom continues to urge people within the Canterbury region to conserve their phones for emergency purposes only.
