As part of the delegation, led by Prime Minister David Cameron, Pennies CEO Alison Hutchinson will be demonstrating how the Pennies ‘digital ecosystem’ unlocks crucial funding for charities and the communities they support: showcasing the power of new technology as a force for social good.
In just five years, Pennies has brought together diverse organisations from across retail, technology and financial services to help boost the efficiency of the UK’s third sector. By creating an additional, sustainable source of funds for charities through their ‘digital charity box’, Pennies has become a key player offering innovative solutions through the UK’s growing FinTech industry.
Pennies is uniquely placed to provide insight to businesses in South East Asia – across digital, retail and payments sectors – about how embracing innovation can benefit their own communities.
Prime Minster David Cameron said:
“British organisations like Pennies are flying the flag and unlocking the economic potential of the fast growing economies of South East Asia. I’m delighted that they have joined me on my first trade mission of this government and I hope that we can work together to create jobs and growth for the UK.”
Pennies, the UK’s leading micro-donation charity, has successfully launched its innovative solution on Castles Technology hardware, a leader in Android payment acceptance. This collaboration enables customers to easily add a small donation to their purchases in-store, seamlessly combining convenience with charitable giving.
UK charity Pennies, the trusted leader in micro-donations, is delighted to announce the appointment of Simon Millard as its new Chief Partnerships Officer.
On Monday 25th August, Pennies, the trusted leader in micro-donations, celebrated another hugely successful Micro-Donation Day, raising £42,500 through 144,000 donations in just 24 hours, all for vital causes.
