Mile of Pennies

EVERY PENNY COUNTS! One penny may not seem like much, but when you add another penny and then even more it equals big results! Help North Carolina children living a Baptist Children’s Homes by giving your pennies, change and dollars. Together, all of those coins help change the lives of boys, girls and families!

1 Mile = 84,440 pennies = $844.40

A mile of pennies, laid edge to edge, equals $844.40! Every Sunday, we ask the children (and adults) of the church to bring any spare change they may have collected that week and donate it to our Mile of Pennies Ministry which is donated to the North Carolina Baptist Children's Home. This is a fun way for our Sunday School children to make a difference in the lives of other children in our community!

In the past, we have also collected money to send to charity:water using this technique. To learn more about these programs, visit their websites here and here!
