Text-to-Donate to Nepal

Nepal Earthquake

In the wake of the devastating 7.8 magnitude earthquake in Nepal on Saturday, April 25, many wireless phone carrier services are offering free calls and texts to Nepal as well as the option of texting to donate to relief efforts. Texting to donate is a fast and easy way to offer monetary aid to a country in crisis. Simply text the given word or code and a set amount will be deducted from your monthly bill. Below is a list of carriers currently offering free text-to-donate services for disaster victims in Nepal.

AT&T
AT&T will not charge customers for text messages or International long distance usage from AT&T phones from the U.S. to Nepal from April 25, 2015 through May 16, 2015.
