Welcome
Can you imagine a world that works for everyone? Young people can and they’re about to show us all how!
Penny On is simply about all of us working together in communities towards common goals.
The campaign is being led by young people in partnership with schools, communities, charities, businesses and retailers.
The simple Penny On mechanism enables us all to assist in the delivery of the Millennium Development Goals 1 penny at a time.
Penny On is something we can all do, with little effort, without even noticing, to provide an inclusive and sustainable resource to projects that tackle the local and global issue of poverty and our fragile environment.
If it all sounds very simple. It’s because it is.
Here’s the idea
Add just 1 penny onto every product purchased world-wide.
Here’s how it works
Imagine millions of people choosing to add a penny on at the till
This is what it could do
Generate £100m + every day to end local and global poverty – shared equally between local and global causes.
Who’s involved?
We all can be – You, your friends, your community, local and international businesses are all a vital part of this simple solution.
