New lottery boost for charities
After 12 months of wrangling, lottery operator Million-2-1 have been given the go-ahead by the Gaming Board of Great Britain to run the first regional mobile phone lottery reports manchester news. "The game has been created to generate extra funds for a cancer research, and a charity which helps underprivileged children. Million-2-1 spokesman, Scott Davis said: "This lottery aims to make it easier for charities to gain extra funding". How does it work? "Under the scheme players are asked to register once by texting "Manchester" to 88821 and then each week they will receive a free text message asking them how many of the £1 tickets they want. If they don't want any they simply do not reply". For more on fund raising by SMS, check out this category in textually.org. |
