About Change for Change Coin Collection Campaigns

Join our network of students and professionals whose small change is making big changes! We are building a network of people across the country who are raising funds for causes in their local communities. If you have an idea about a fundraiser that will help an important cause in your community, read more about bringing Change for Change to your school, college, or workplace!

How it Works

  • Email us at dana.hork@changeforchange.org and tell us about your program idea to turn loose change into meaningful change in your community.
  • Work with Change for Change to fine-tune your program to ensure your idea is a success.  You will be asked to write a plan for your program, provide references and identify a faculty/administrative advisor if you are in school/college.
  • Sign up and be part of the Change for Change network! 
  • Change for Change will provide you with a 'tool kit' of support, including:
    • Change collection containers
    • Funds to pay for start-up expenses
    • Change pick-up services, if available 
    • "The Change for Change Welcome Manual," a comprehensive How-To guide with best ideas to help chapters succeed.
    • Over a dozen document templates, including flyers, a sample press release, a sample constitution for college chapters, and sample roles/responsibilities for your local Board chapter steering committee.
  • Tell us about your success in a year-end report.
