TexTango Selects the House of Ruth Maryland as Featured Charity

Charity will utilize TexTango's products and services to help create awareness.

San Diego, CA, April 05, 2012 --(PR.com)-- TexTango today announced it has chosen the House of Ruth Maryland as its first Featured Charity of the year. The House of Ruth Maryland will have the opportunity to take advantage of TexTango's products and services, including the TextnGive communication platform, to educate and create awareness for domestic violence.

The House of Ruth Maryland leads the fight to end violence against women and their children by confronting the attitudes, behaviors and systems that perpetuate it, and by providing victims with the services necessary to rebuild their lives safely and free of fear.

"We are very excited to have been chosen as TexTango's first featured charity," said Sandi Timmins, Executive Director at the House of Ruth Maryland. "We're looking forward to working with the TexTango team to help us further educate our community about domestic violence and help us achieve our vision that one day, every woman in Maryland will be safe in her own home."

As the chosen charity, the House of Ruth Maryland will utilize the power of TexTango's TextnGive communication platform as another social media outlet to promote special events, receive donations and share facts. By downloading the free texting application, supporters of the House of Ruth Maryland become true ambassadors, promoting the charity's message, and making the world a better place with every text they send to their social network. In addition, TexTango will create a mobile website, initiate a keyword marketing campaign and deploy a street team to further spread the House of Ruth Maryland’s message.

With these campaigns, TexTango intends to create awareness for the causes in people's own backyards- giving power to the local neighborhoods and helping supporters make their own world a better place. In the near future, TexTango will be expanding this program to cities and neighborhoods across the country.

"We are thrilled to be supporting such a noble cause. Being from Baltimore, I'm thrilled that we're starting here," said Kris Golshan, VP, Business Relations for TexTango. "With TexTango's offering, we'll have the ability to initiate a grass-root campaign and make it go viral."

Supporters can find out more by visiting http://www.textango.com/ruth.html. By downloading the free TextnGive application, members will also have access to "InTango" which allows for free text messaging with other TextnGive members anywhere in the world. The TextnGive mobile application is currently available for Android (version 2.1 and above) devices and will soon be available for the iPhone.
