Update: Verizon, Sprint, and T-Mobile are waiving text message fees for those that text message 90999 from their device.

Incredible news today by way of donating: As of 4 PM EST, US wireless carriers had received $5 million in donations from customers. 

To break the data down, that's $5 million in 48 hours, based on $10 increments.  In comparison, contributions for all of last year (2009) totaled just less than $4 million.  All proceeds go to the Red Cross for earthquake relief efforts in Haiti.

To donate $10 to the Red Cross, text "HAITI" to 90999 from your mobile device.  The numbers will be revised as I receive them.  $5 million and counting - let's keep up the good work!
