Send an SMS in aid of the children of Iraq

Global Networks Switzerland and UNICEF have signed an agreement to raise funds for Iraqi children through a worldwide SMS text messaging campaign.

The Swiss subsidiary of the Los Angeles-based Global Networks will provide the worldwide access code so that mobile phone users on every continent can donate a small amount in their local currency in the few seconds it takes to send a text message, per an article in Cellular News.
