When you donate, you’re warmed by the knowledge that you’re making a difference in the lives of people with epilepsy. It feels good to give back to the community.

Of course, remembering to donate on every giving day or to every Facebook fundraiser sent to you can be a little overwhelming. Sometimes, charitable giving doesn’t always fit in your budget or in your busy schedule.

But, what if there was a way for you to give without thinking about it? A way for you to give almost every day even? Now, with Spare Change, you can. 

When you sign up for Spare Change, you’re doing exactly that — donating your spare change. With every swipe, your transactions are rounded up to the nearest dollar and the difference is donated. For example, if your morning cup of coffee is $4.54, the remaining $.46 is donated to the Epilepsy Foundation Central & South Texas.

Donating your spare change is easy and impactful:

  • You’ll receive monthly statements to keep track of your contributions
  • You can set a monthly limit to your donations if you’d like (e.g. You can set a limit of $30 a month)
  • You can pause donations at any time

When enrolled, your roundups are tallied until they reach $5, at which point a donation is triggered. This way your bank statement isn’t overwhelmed with micro-charges.

Signing up to donate your spare change is simple and easy. All you have to do is go to EFCST.org/Give and “Start Rounding Up Today” to join the fight to END EPILEPSY.
