Baseball Team Tests Texting For Charity Program

Washington Nationals fans soon will be able to text in charity donations during a game, thanks to a partnership between the team, MLB.com, and the Mobile Giving Foundation.

During the July 13 game against the Houston Astros, fans will be invited to text the word "NATS" to 90999 to give $5 to support the work of the Children's National Medical Center to fight pediatric diabetes.
