PredictoMobile(tm) Partners With Charity Choice Gift Cards



 Offers Fastest-Growing SMS Community New Way to Give Back On-the-Go

       PredictoMobile and Charity Choice Campaign Allows Users
                 to Give Back This Holiday Season

NEW YORK, Dec. 16, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PredictoMobile(tm), www.predicto.com, the interactive SMS service that lets members vote on the biggest issues of the day right from their cell phone, announces the launch of a new donation campaign that will put the power of giving into their members' hands. Through CharityChoice Gift Cards, a program run by the Special Kids Fund, the Predicto mobile community will not only have a unique opportunity to give back, but also to decide whether their contribution will be used to benefit the environment, education, the disabled, disaster relief, or other areas of concern.

"We're proud to be able to bring support to CharityChoice's truly visionary endeavor. There is widespread need in the world, and likewise, many worthwhile causes in place. CharityChoice encourages people to consider the range of this need, while letting them contribute in a very personal way," said Itai Kathein, President of PredictoMobile(tm).

The premium mobile service company serves over 1 million members who cast votes on their cell phones via SMS to predict the outcome of current events. With each vote, members earn reward points redeemable for ringtones, gift cards, and consumer electronics.

This initiative, which is set to begin this week, will give members the opportunity to convert these reward points into tax-deductible CharityChoice Gift Cards. Recipients of the Gift Cards are able to select a charity from a list of over 100 renowned non-profit organizations, including March of Dimes, Toys for Tots, Mercy Corps, Big Brothers Big Sisters, and the Alzheimer's Association, among others.

CharityChoice was born when Special Kids Fund board member Mark Finkel recognized the need for a service with which one can give a charitable gift that allows the recipient to choose which charity will receive the funds. Since its inception, the organization has become a pioneer in recipient-designated charity gifts. "Our CharityChoice Gift Cards provide a way for all of us to elevate how we do our gift-giving," said Special Kids Fund President and CharityChoice co-founder, Daniel B. Goodman.
