Twilio. seriously.
If you want a no programming solution
twilio + https://zapier.com

twilio will make good on the sms part, zapier integrates with more
things than you can shake a stick at.
I use it for the missing pet alerts (Pet ResQ 911) we run on 94.5fm

When someone sends us a lost of found pet alert via google docs,
zapier is watching that spreadsheet and then
turns around and sends someone (not me) a text message.
She then does the recording and puts it on sound cloud.
I now get a text message and make a few edits.
It goes up on a ftp server and all is well. :-)

zapier has a free tier.

That would be my suggestion. If zapier doesn't work, then twilio is
easy enough to programmatically integrate.
