Yale Bulldogs Text-to-Give

Saturday night (11/6/10) marked the 4th season win for the Yale men's hockey team and the 1st chance for students, parents, and hockey fans to try out the new text-to-give option for Yale/United Way's "Give Every Child a Chance" campaign. With a sold-out crowd, there was a lot of energy in the rink! 

It was exciting to see Live United messages around the ice and to hear "Join Yale University in teaming up with United Way of Greater New Haven to Give Every Child a Chance. Get out your cell phone and text the word YALE to 864833 to make an instant $10 donation. Provide a week of tutoring for a kindergarten student in the Greater New Haven area to help her learn to read." over the loud speaker throughout the night.

The text-to-give campaign will be promoted again this Saturday at the last home football game, but you can also make an instant $10 donation by texting anytime between now and then!
