Telephone fundraisers can only be requested by organisations belonging to the so-called "Third Sector", in particular non-profit organisations and humanitarian international aid organisations (NGOs or UN organisations), registered or awaiting registration to "Registro Unico Nazionale Enti Terzo Settore" (RUNTS - National Single Register of the Third Sector).
The prerequisites to apply for a fundraising number are the following:
- communication space on major national TV channels (RAI, Mediaset, La7, SKY), without which the solidarity number would not be able to produce the expected fundraising volumes
- sending the complete documentation to the Telecom operators by the 1st of the month before the start of the fundraising campaign. Exceptions are the September fundraisers for which documentation is required by 1 July.
