Frequently Asked Questions
Do you only take pennies?
Nope! We have chosen this concept of pennies as a vehicle to encourage people to give, but at the end of the day, our goal is to raise $400,000 through this campaign whether by check, online giving, cash or coins!
How do I bring in my coins?
We encourage people to visit your bank, or a local Coinstar to move your coins into your bank account. If you are in the Lynchburg area, you are welcome to drop off coins in an enclosed jar! Call ahead to make sure we are in the office (our in-office hours are Mon-Thur, 9am-4:30pm). We are located at 2306 Bedford Ave. Lynchburg, VA 24503
I’d like my church/school/business to participate in this. How do I go about that?
We have promotional material for people in your community to participate. Below are samples of the proposals. Contact info@freedom424.org and we will get you all set up!
How can I get my kids involved?
Many of our staff members are also parents. We love teaching our kids how to protect themselves but also protect and bring hope to others. If you have piggy banks or extra coins laying around, encourage your kids to give hope to others! Each coin represents someone who may not have the same freedom we have, but we can help change that!
