HELP BREAK AN OFFICIAL WORLD RECORD!!!!!! Contribute to raising the most money for a charity in coins!!
Change It! has received the go ahead from the official world record keeper* to break a world record! We are only initiating and organizing the record attempt however. WE NEED YOUR HELP!! The current record is 152,217 GBP, just about 230,000 USD, all in COINS! There is absolutely no way a small number of people could achieve such a feat on their own. We need everybody's help with this. If everyone in Tulsa donated only $1, we would more than double the record. Imagine if everyone in Tulsa and beyond donated just even 50 cents. This is an easy way to give just a little to make a gargantuan difference!

  • 10AM-8PM
