OUR STORY

Penny Appeal USA: Since 2016

We are a proud member of an international Penny Appeal family that celebrated its 10-year anniversary in 2019.

Penny Appeal was set up in 2009 to provide poverty relief in the United Kingdom as well as across Asia, the Middle East, and Africa by offering water solutions, organizing mass feedings, supporting orphan care and providing emergency food and medical aid. Since then we have transformed lives and empowered communities around the world, helping to break the poverty cycle and build brighter futures.

Today there are member offices in Australia, Canada, and South Africa as well as country offices in Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Jerusalem.
