History

2017

On December 10, it was announced that Coins for Change was cancelled, due to their Privacy Policy and US Fair Use of Education law. However, it was brought back on December 12, 2017, and the money was from their ads on the website.

One day later, they announced the charities they would donate to, and those charities would be Lumos, WWF, and Make a Wish Foundation.[1][2][3]
