every copper counts campaign
Make every copper count! It’s simple.
We’re asking you to collect coppers and donate the money to help bring hope to people affected by HIV and AIDS. Every copper will quite literally count because 100% of your donation will go to the work on the ground in Africa. EngageHIV trustees cover the running costs of the charity so all the money you collect will make a difference to people’s lives. And please don’t stop at coppers – we wouldn’t say no to silver or notes as well!
The idea is to use bottles, jars or tins to collect the money and we will provide you with Every Copper Counts stickers to decorate your collecting tins. We encourage you to get your school, church or business involved.
Please order your stickers from info@engagehiv.org or collect some from Tre and the band at Onehundredhours gigs throughout the summer.
The idea behind Every Copper Counts came from Emma from Northern Ireland ...
"I really wanted to get involved with Engagehivaids.com and be a part of bringing hope to Africa but I didn't have much to give personally. I knew I could give my time and my action though, so I just started asking my friends and family for all of their pennies... I figured that all of that small change added up would make a difference. And that's how I came up with the name ... because every copper does count!"
A big thank you to Emma for all the money she has raised so far and for this brilliant idea!
