Donate cash back from Discover credit cards to Haitian victims

Posted on January 20th, 2010

Discover Bank is making a substantial effort to assist the victims of Haiti. Discover card holders may donate their cash back to the relief efforts in Haiti and Discover Bank will match every dollar donated.

Since Discover Bank started this support effort they have had plenty of support from card holders. Here is their message to those card holders who’ve donated and to those who are considering:

Discover is very grateful to Cardmembers for the compassion they’ve shown through their rapid response to relief efforts in Haiti. Thank you for helping to make a difference. In four days, you donated more than $1 million of your Cashback Bonus to the American Red Cross. Along with an initial contribution of $100,000, Discover is matching your donations dollar-for dollar, resulting in a combined donation of more than $2.1 million for Haiti relief. Those who wish to donate their cash back bonus to the American RedCross may do so without a matching contribution, or donate directly to charities supporting Haiti relief efforts. Discover is also waiving merchant transaction fees for the following charities providing support to Haitian relief efforts.
