Republicans, Obama ask supporters to text hurricane relief September 6, 2008

Republican National Convention leaders have asked convention attendees to pledge donations to hurricane relief funds via text to the code 2HELP, using the keyword GIVE.

… Barack Obama’s campaign could not leave it up to the Republican camp to harness technology for the betterment of the Gulf Coast. The Democratic presidential candidate contacted his cadre of supporters who receive text messages from the campaign, with a text that read, “Barack asks that you give to the Red Cross: give 5 dollars by texting GIVE to 24357 or give more by calling 1-800-435-7669 or at redcross.org/donate. Please fwd.”
