Check your pockets, the bottom of your purse, or your car cup holders. It's highly likely you will find a good amount of change.Yet, how often do we disregard change like it has no value?
It does have value!
Get a bucket or container to hold a lot of change and add to it every time you have some. Give a year or two of time and you will see shocking results.
My family and I have been saving our change for two years. We recently poured it out onto the floor and counted it all. The change amount came to $720 dollars.
Change does in fact have value!
This change could be used for personal savings or open up opportunities to give to chartities in your own community. It doesn't take much effort to save your change and you will see fulfilling results. There are so many opportunities waiting for you just by collecting loose pocket change.
There are many local charities your savings of change could benefit. Charities like Angela's House or non-profit organizations here in South Bend. There is so much need in our area or anywhere around the world.
An important aspect when beginning budgeting is never become a scrudge. Often when giving to those in need you see that money come back to sometimes in doubles. Of course it is important to budget and one of those envelopes can certainly be charity.
Start a change bucket with your family or room mates and get long term results. Besides you're never too old for a piggy bank.
Feel free to share where you collect your change and it's progress.
