What is Text to Give?
Text to Give is a fundraising method that empowers donors to give to organizations via their smartphones. Using their phones’ texting application, supporters can donate to their favorite nonprofits.

How does Text to Give work?
- Step 1 You create a Donorbox campaign for your
fundraising project and enable text-to-give. - Step 2 Your donor sends a text with your campaign ID to the toll-free number
1-(855)-575-7888 or your custom keyword to shortcode 801801. - Step 3 Donorbox replies to your donor with a text message
that contains a link to your campaign page. - Step 4 Your donor clicks the link on their smartphone, fills out the
donation form, and completes their donation. That’s it!
And subsequent donations are even easier. They can be done instantly
using repeat donation — no forms or websites are required. More below!

Donorbox’s Text to Give is based in the United States and Canada. Any supporters or donors based in the U.S. or Canada can use the Donorbox Text to Give feature. Our shortcode works in the US and the toll-free standard telephone number works in either the US or Canada. If a supporter is texting from outside the US, they could be susceptible to additional carrier charges. For your organization, there is no difference between a donation made from the US, Canada or another nation.
