Total 21 100%
3. If you made a text donation, do you think you'll use this method of donating again in the future for disaster related giving?

Total 20 100%
4. If you made a text donation, do you think you'll use this method of donating again in the future for donations NOT related to disasters (such as your year-end gifts to charities)?

I'd like to see a comparison of the average donation, by method of giving. Many of these text contributions were for relatively small amounts .. like $10. I don't think too many people would write a check for such a small amount.
