Text-to-give allows your donors to give through their phone bill, while text-to-donate takes your donors to a mobile donation form to complete their transactions. Despite their differences, text-to-give and text-to-donate are often used interchangeably.

The language of the social sector can feel daunting and confusing. For example, did you know there are at least five different types of “years” when it comes to nonprofit data?
