Coinstar “Coins that Count”
– Jan 03, 2012
Since its founding in 1991 Coinstar® has promoted “Care Everyday” initiatives, one of which is Coins that Count. It is an ongoing partnership between Coinstar, Inc., the non-profit community and supermarket partners. Feeding America is thankful for the ongoing contributions of Coinstar and its generous patrons. Funds received go to support national programs.
How It Works
Participants can donate to their favorite non-profit at a Coinstar machine. Simply choose the “donate” option from the onscreen menu, select a non-profit, and deposit coins in the machine.
To find the non-profit partners available in your area, go to your local Coinstar machine, select the donation option to view a list of participating non-profit partners.
