5 times the smiles

Posting here because the chazzer board doesn't get the traffic, and strictly speaking it is a Grabbit as the offer expires on Monday....

Donations to the Smile Train will be multiplied by FIVE! Secure linky.

Recently, on one of the coldest days of the year, a group of Smile Train supporters presented me with a gift that instantly warmed my heart — an unexpected unlimited 5x match grant!

These loyal match donors promised to make a big impact in the shortest month of the year by pledging to match all email donations from today through 29 February.

Because of their generosity, you can have your next gift multiplied five times. Will you help by making a gift of £75, £150, or perhaps a generous gift of £600? Your support today, of any amount can help up to five times as many children with clefts get the life-changing surgery the need.

Please help us change the lives of cleft children and their families today. Donate before midnight on 29 February

Plus of course you'll get the tax back at your marginal rate = total no-brainer.

Please be generous!

I couldn't find anything on Smile Train's website about this 5x match; you'd expect it to be centre stage and promoted like mad. The secure link OP has kindly provided takes you to a page which looks authentic enough but, unlike the quote (?where/from whom does that come), makes it clear that the 5x matching is limited: 'All gifts received before the deadline qualify for this Challenge Grant offer, up to the limit.'

I'm puzzled that I can't donate straight from Smile Train's website and get the 5x matching. The reference to 'e-mail donations' is also a bit odd. I'm not trying to deter anyone from donating, but clarification would be much appreciated, please, if you are able to do so.
