How many emails do you get each day that you delete without reading? Now, how many text messages do you get each day that you delete without reading? If you’re like the majority of society, you read all your texts within a few minutes of receiving them. That is why the A-T Children’s Project is SO excited about our new texting capabilities!
A few of our supporters may have already received a text from us inviting them to one of our recent webinars. We want to share the fun! If you are an event host or A-T family looking for a new way to connect with your participants, we invite you to send out a mass text!
Here are some potential texting scenarios:

You can send videos and photos along with your text. And, your supporters can even text back and have a conversation. There are so many possibilities for events, special days like Rare Disease Day or Giving Tuesday or even just to share a research update. We look forward to helping you every step of the way.
