How It Works
It’s simple — and that’s the point. Coins for Conservation makes it easy for community-minded businesses and eco-partner nonprofits to work together for a cleaner, healthier coast.
Once you’ve selected your eco-partner, here’s how it works in three simple steps.
Step 1: Invite
Offer guests or customers the option to add a small donation — often $1–$4 — to their purchase.
It’s simple and completely voluntary. Clear signage lets customers know their contribution supports coastal conservation right here in North Carolina.
Step 2: Collect
Your business gathers these small donations over time.
Whether you choose to compile them quarterly or semiannually, even modest contributions quickly add up when your community participates.
Step 3: Contribute
You distribute the collected funds as a lump sum to your chosen eco-partner.
Together, you’re supporting programs that protect wildlife, restore habitat, and preserve the health of our coast for future generations.
What happens next?
Your business gets recognized for its impact, your customers feel good about supporting a great cause, and your chosen nonprofit receives vital support to continue their mission.
It’s a win for your business, a win for the coast, and a win for future generations.
