Ben Stiller launches "original" Text2Give campaign

Ben Stiller tells Lance Armstrong about his "original" idea to start a charity called STILLERSTRONG in order to help the community of Ceverine, Haiti and build a new school there.


Stiller's campaign is not without detractors...and pending lawsuits. Most notable by Lance Armstrong himself who hastily video taped a response to StillerStrong in an emergency Armstrong Foundation board meeting this week. We'll see who's tongue in cheek is STRONGER.

Stiller teamed up with MobileCause partner CauseCast to create this real mobile giving campaign.

Video: Sex and the City Star Kim Cattrall Supports the Eleven Eleven Campaign

The Eleven Eleven Campaign -- a two year effort asking 11 million Americans to contribute at least $11 in support of Veterans service organizations and charities. The campaign culminates on Veterans Day, 2011: 11/11/11.

Blog by Kim Cattrall:
"Once the parades have passed and our wars have faded from the news, how we treat our returning soldiers and their families is the measure of our country's character.

Unfortunately, Veterans Day -- which began more than half a century ago as a profound national holiday -- has now become little more than a day for people to skip work or a chance for shoppers to find a good sale.

We should do better than that. And beginning today, we can." read more

The #1 Charity to follow on Twitter is...


Note: We just added a cool new app called Apture. Try clicking on the links in this article...it brings up info and videos without leaving the page.

According to Paste Magazine Twitter offers one of the best ways to connect with charities and Charity: Water does it better than anyone. We're thrilled to have entered into a new partnership with Charity: Water to enable anyone with a phone to donate by simply sending a one word text message. We'll let you know as soon as the campaign kicks in. In the meantime, follow our friends on Twitter (you could be follower #565,607). By the way, have you seen Jennifer Connelly in this amazing video promo?





In the same article, we noticed another one of our clients made #6 in the Best Charities on Twitter list. Our friends at Invisible Children have done an amazing job of utilizing social media to spread the word about the atrocities in Uganda and the children who are forced to be soldiers in Joseph Kony's army. Show your support for them by texting RESCUE to 20222 to donate $5. This is a brand new campaign (Verizon customers may have to wait a week or two more before it is active). Remember, your tax-deductible donation will show up on your phone bill. Follow Invisible Children on Twitter.
