PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
PENNIES4CHANGE CHARITY (28 April 2008)
Motion Details
That this House urges the banking and retail sectors to allow their customers to raise an estimated £100 million a year for charity by offering the option of rounding up credit and debit card transactions to the nearest £1 through the PIN terminal at the point of sale through the Pennies4change scheme; and considers that by harnessing the power of pennies and encouraging a culture of giving, Pennies4change can make a significant impact for those in need and for good causes everywhere.
