This is a brand new, free service for charities, that has no set up or fundraising costs for charities, no network charges for people making donations and every penny donated goes to charity. Gift Aid can also be added to donations. From today, supporters of the Mourne Mountain Rescue Team can make donations of up to £10 by texting ‘MMRT10’ and either 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 10 to 70070 to make their donation. The text message is free and all of the donation will be passed to the Mourne Mountain Rescue Team. Jeremy Purdy, Honorary Secretary of the Mourne Mountain Rescue Team said, “This is a wonderful way for us to raise money as it’s speedy, simple and spontaneous. Most people have a mobile phone these days so we expect this to be very popular with our supporters. “We have also teamed up with JustGiving, the UK’s leading online fundraising website, so you can donate and raise funds for us online. Using JustGiving saves us costs and reduces our admin burden, so going online is by far the most efficient way of supporting us. “It’s easy to make a single or monthly donation with a credit or debit card online. All you need to do is go to www.justgiving.com/mournemrt/donate.” For further information contact Jeremy Purdy at the Mourne Mountain Rescue Team on 07739017768.
