In honor of Giving Tuesday on December 1st, Everyware, a leading contactless payments and customer engagement solutions company, is launching its ‘Text to Give‘ holiday campaign. Organizations in need of donations and planning fundraising efforts at the end of the year can use Everyware’s ‘Text to Give’ solution to raise funds – making it easy and convenient for donors to simply text the word ‘Give’ via Everyware’s Pay by Text platform and donate to various nonprofit, religious and fundraising organizations.
Nonprofit organizations are increasingly depending on touchless technology so they can collect donations quickly when someone wants to donate. With ‘Text to Give’, donors can give at any time without needing a checkbook or cash plus the ability to set up one-time or recurring donations. Now, more than ever, it’s important for nonprofits to engage and retain supporters in continuous and integrated ways. Everyware’s easy ‘Text to Give’ automation means organizations receive funds quickly while using two-way messaging to build strong, personalized relationships in a safe manner.
“The ability to quickly and safely donate to an organization greatly increases the likelihood of people giving, and that’s exactly what we want to make possible for Giving Tuesday and especially this time of year,” said Everyware Founder and CEO Larry Talley. “Our ‘Text to Give’ automation is making giving a simple and convenient way to collect while creating a sense of community and connection through text messaging.”
