SEATTLE, Jan. 19 /PRNewswire/ --

    What:       Donations made via mobile phones for Haiti Earthquake Relief
                have surpassed $27 million across all the short codes
                managed by the Mobile Giving Foundation, a non-profit
                organization dedicated to helping other non-profits raise
                funds through mobile.

                Thanks largely to national television appeals and more non-
                profit organizations joining relief efforts, mobile
                donations increased by $7 million, raising the total amount
                from $20 million reported by MGF yesterday to more than $27
                million as of 8:00pm Eastern on Monday.  The Foundation
                continues to see donations come in at an increasing pace.
                MGF will report updated numbers throughout the week.

    How:        By texting a keyword to a designated short code via a mobile
                phone, a micro-donation of $5 or $10 can be made to aid
                the millions of people affected by this tragedy.  100% of
                your donation goes to the recipient charity, and the
                donation appears as a charge on your carrier bill, standard
                rates may apply.

                additional short codes are available for making monetary
