SMS for Community Groups
Get people to your next meeting, chase RSVPs and keep members in the loop with two-way texting.
Community groups run on volunteers, a text gets read
Community groups run on volunteers, and a Facebook post or email newsletter is easy to miss between work and school pickup. Australian community groups use Mobile Message to remind members about the next meetup, get a headcount for a local action meeting, and keep everyone updated when plans change at short notice.
Mobile Message costs at 1.6¢ per message on your first purchase with no monthly fees, so a committee run by volunteers only pays for what it sends. Send under your group's name, let people reply straight back into a shared team inbox to confirm they're coming or ask a question, and keep your whole contact list ready for the next campaign.
Meeting and gathering reminders
Remind members about the next meetup or working bee with the time and location, so turnout doesn't depend on who saw the Facebook post.
RSVP and local action campaigns
Get a fast headcount for a local action meeting by asking people to reply YES, so organisers know how many chairs to set out.
Safety and consultation notices
Let residents know about a local safety issue or upcoming council consultation while it still matters, not two weeks later in a newsletter.
Volunteer and event-day coordination
Ask for a hand with setup, catering or a specific task and let people reply straight back to say what they can do.
Fundraising appeals and updates
Send a short reminder before a collection closes, or update supporters on how a local appeal is tracking.
