The Great Coin Exchange For Children In Need

Did you know that a foreign coin exchange could be a great way to raise money for Children In Need this year?  At Cash4Coins we offer a coin exchange service that can turn donated foreign coins into Sterling you can use to put towards this great cause.

How To Get Started With Your Foreign Coin Fundraising

You’d be surprised how many people have foreign coins hanging around at home. These are often leftover from business trips abroad and foreign holidays and they end up being stuffed into drawers or put in jars.  Unfortunately, the banks will not help you to exchange these into Sterling, even if the proceeds are for charity.  It is not logistically viable for the banks to change coins and repatriate them back to their country of origin, but we can help!

We have helped many charities to make use of the millions of foreign coins that are gathering dust around the world and we can do the same for you.  We can turn Euros into Sterling, US Dollars into Sterling and in fact, practically any currency you send us into…Sterling!  That’s money we deposit into the bank for you to donate to Children In Need.

A simple collection tin decorated with flags of the world or banknotes of the world is a great way to encourage donations. Most people only have to look in a drawer or jar at home to find coins for you.  And these can mount up very quickly.

Coin Exchange Fundraising Ideas For Schools

If you are a school looking for some great fundraising ideas for Children In Need, we can help.  Why not ask your pupils to ask their parents for foreign coin donations and then set a homework task that gets them thinking about foreign coins and they many different kinds available.  This is a great way to teach children about other cultures and the money used in other countries.  For older kids, why not give them a little lesson in foreign currency exchange!

The Easiest And Quickest Way To Raise Funds

At Cash4Coins we give you a very convenient method of changing those collected foreign coins into cash.  And if you collect over 10Kg we will send our secure courier to come and pick them up from you free of charge.  We don’t even ask you to count or sort your coins as we do that for you.  It really couldn’t be easier.

Our fundraising team is also on hand to give you advice on coin exchange fundraising ideas and how to make it a record breaking Children In Need year this year.  So, if you are joining Pudsey and the gang to raise much needed cash for this worthwhile cause, don’t forget that Cash4Coins can help you.

It’s easy to send us your coins and we will have a valuation ready for you as quickly as possible. We have helped many charities, schools and hospitals to find different avenues for fundraising and our coin exchange service has proved very popular.  In the meantime we wish you lots of Children In Need fun this year and look forward to receiving your coins.
