FrontlinesSMS -Text Messaging Hub for NGOs
Business
Until now, many NGOs have independently implemented SMS systems, some going as far as designing and developing their own applications from scratch. This is of little use to the wider community. FrontlineSMS was launched towards the end of 2005 specifically to bridge this gap – aiming to provide an affordable, standalone turn-key SMS solution to NGOs. FrontlineSMS allows them – many for the first time – to access 'bulk' SMS technology giving them the ability to carry out small- to medium-scale trials before embarking on possible larger project proposals.

Note that these are the locations of the groups' headquarters, and not neccesarily where they do their work. A map of areas these groups work in would likely look very different.
