My story

 

As many of you already know, COINS is highly motivated to support community projects; we believe that we are privileged and with this comes a sense of duty and responsibility to care about those who are impoverished and less privileged.  At COINS USA we have been challenged by our counterparts in the UK to take part in the COINS 3 Peaks Challenge (www.coins3peakschallenge.com) which will raise significant funds for community projects.

The COINS 3 Peaks Challenge is the classic mountain challenge designed exclusively for the Construction Industry.  COINS USA will be competing alongside other construction teams to climb the highest peaks in Scotland, England, and Wales, all within a time limit of 24 hours!  But we will need your help as we must raise £6,000 (approximately $12,000) to compete; but all for a magnificent cause! 

The challenge, now in its 6th year, has raised over $2.4 million, all of which has been donated to CARE International.  Last year was a record year with over $900,000 raised.  With your help we may be able to raise over $1 million!  This year the distribution of funds is widening and will be distributed via the newly formed COINS Foundation to, specific projects managed by CARE International, Habitat for Humanity, and Stepping On.

The aim of the newly established COINS Foundation is to approve grants that will fund projects offering relief to vulnerable and disadvantaged people and communities both in the UK and internationally.  The foundation will also focus on the relief of suffering among victims of natural disasters.

 I hope that we can count on you for a generous donation of $250 or more to the COINS Foundation.  However, please note that any donation amount is welcome and greatly appreciated.

We thank you for your time and consideration and look forward to any support you will be able to provide.  If you require additional information about any of the projects the funds will be supporting, please contact us and we will be happy to answer any questions you may have.  We truly feel that this is an exciting way for the COINS USA to begin to make a difference and hope that you will enjoy supporting us and following our progress with fundraising and in the physical event!

Please dig deep and sponsor our team online. Donating through this web site is simple, fast, and secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us.

THE DONATION IS IN BRITISH POUNDS, SO WE HAVE ADDED A LINK TO A CURRENCY CONVERTER FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE.
