Qualcomm backs SMS charity donation service
US wireless technology developer Qualcomm has become the founding patron of the Mobile Giving Foundation (MGF), a new service that enables people to make charity donations via SMS text message.

MGM says the founding donation from Qualcomm has been made through the telco's Wireless Reach initiative.

MGM aims to create a single 'mobile giving channel' that enables more than 250 million mobile users in the US to make charitable contributions instantly using their mobile phones. The MGF acts as a messaging gateway, compliance entity, billing settlement and records clearinghouse between operators and participating charities."
