The first retailer to go live with Pennies
Next time you buy a pizza online, take the chance to round-up and give a few pennies to improve the life of a child or an adult with a learning disability. Not only can you make a real difference to someone’s life, but your bill will be that much easier to divide up if you are sharing with friends.
Domino’s has worked with Special Olympics Great Britain for several years. Funds have been raised through a combination of corporate giving and staff fund raising and customers are invited to join in too. This is part of Domino’s commitment to the communities in which they operate.
Teaming up with Pennies means that their customers have another way of showing their support and help children and adults with learning disabilities have a more fulfilled and confident life by participating in a year-round sports programme. And customers have been generous! As of February 2012, they have chosen to round up their orders one million times, raising over £230,000 for charity.
