Dimes for Dinners Fundraiser

We all know and hold on to the value of a quarter, but dimes are the forgotten coin that we let fall under the seat of the car or sit in coin jar waiting to be used. We have a new opportunity for our community members to give meaning to their dimes and be a part of the CHP mission- it’s called Dimes for Dinners.

The concept is simple really. Each individual or family collects their dimes to support our efforts to improve access to healthy foods through community engagement. The best part: the donation of each filled tube of dimes will provide the funds for CHP operations to grow and donate about one week’s worth of servings of vegetables for one person in need in our community- a pretty great impact for collecting those spare dimes from the couch cushions!

Through Dimes for Dinners, participants are taking action for a great cause in a fun and easy way. Anyone of any background or age can enjoy participating in Dimes for Dinners, and will experience the joy of making a difference in their community.

How much does each tube hold?

On average a full tube will hold about seven dollars in dimes. CHP donates about three servings of fresh veggies per dollar, meaning the average filled tube is equal to funding the donation of 21 servings of veggies.

Where does the money go?

All funds collected through Dimes for Dinners go to support Community Harvest Project operations. Community Harvest Project (CHP), a 501(c)3 organization, is the only non-profit in the area dedicated to improving access to healthy foods through community engagement.

Through our volunteer farming programs, education initiatives, and community partnerships, we bring thousands of community members together each year to improve access to healthy foods for individuals and families in need across Worcester County. In fact, with the help of over 9,400 volunteers, CHP donated over 324,200 servings of fresh fruits and vegetables to those in need throughout Worcester County in the 2013 growing season. Learn more at www.community-harvest.org.

The Milford Farmers Market will run a fundraiser for Dimes for Dinners for the entirety of August.
