Coins 4 Kids 

Celebrate Autism Awareness and Make a "Change" for the Better

 
 
 

This is a great program to run in any school. It is a month long project and April, being Autism Awareness Month, is a great time to do it. Each class will use a bucket or other container to collect coins. The containers are weighed at the end of each week so everyone can track the leading homerooms. At the end of the month, the class that collects the most coins (in pounds) can receive a special reward or acknowledgment. Some schools use pencils or other small items that can be purchased through Oriental Trading or other sources. The project is promoted through parent and staff emails, signage in school, social media posting, mention in the school newspaper or web site, and any other broadcast outlets. It’s also a good idea to have a coin bucket on a table right at the entrance of the school with a poster. This project is very easy to run and staff and students enjoy seeing their donations go up.
