Club Penguin does a TON of things throughout the year, but probably one the kindest, most awesome things that they do is an annual event they like to call Coins For Change.
Coins For Change is where Club Penguin players around the world donate virtual coins to various causes, and the amount of coins spent on each cause decides how Club Penguin splits a HUGE donation to the causes that you gave to with your own virtual coins.
Club Penguin updated their Global Citizenship page recently, and I wanted to be sure I got the full scoop.
Change the world with Club Penguin!
This holiday, let's change the world and have fun doing it. Join Club Penguin for the seventh annual Coins For Change fundraiser, because we believe every penguin can make a difference.
Starting December 19, players can log in, play online games, and donate virtual coins in Club Penguin to help real-world projects and charities around the globe. They'll help us support 10 projects sharinga $1M donation that provides medical help, builds safe places, and protects the earth. There efforts range from constructing school libraries and a hospital wing, to protecting the nesting grounds of penguins.
We're also encouraging players to take actions and make a different in their community.

Take action in the community!
In the U.S., players can donate toys to Toys for Toys! On December 7 and 8, they can join Radio Disney in their Festival of Giving throughout the U.S. After December 8, they can visit the Toys for Tots' website to find drop-off locations in their area.
