Spendensammlung für Mix for Kids im Penny-Markt in Volkach

As the latest winner of the Förderpenny charity vote scheme, Mix for Kids will receive both the prize money of 1500 euros and all donations customers at the closest Penny grocery store make for one year. This campaign runs from November 1, 2024, to October 31, 2025. During this time, Mix for Kids benefits whenever customers round up their purchase to the nearest 10-cent amount at the Penny store in Volkach, Germany. To support the non-profit organization, all customers have to do is agree to the round-up at the checkout and the extra cents will go to Mix for Kids and directly support the organization’s work.

There is another way to support projects that benefit children in need: Instead of cashing in their credit from bringing back bottles with returnable deposits, customers can put their return receipts in a donation box right by the empties return.

The Förderpenny scheme, an initiative from the food discounter Penny, gives shoppers an easy way to do good and make a big difference with a small donation. Since 2015, the Förderpenny initiative has resulted in donations of more than 4.8 million euros. Mix for Kids is grateful to all the Penny customers who support children and adolescents in need with their donations while they shop.
