How do the kids "buy" food for the pantry with their money? My husband and I help with the store at our church and the giving idea intrigues me.

We were giving out prizes just for memorizing verses but the kids were getting tired of that. We decided to bring back Bible Bucks but with a giving, not receiving, theme. The younger kids will use their bucks to buy food for the church food pantry and the older kids will be using their money for a children's home in Haiti that we help sponsor. Our kids are so excited about the new program they can't wait. We had Bible Bucks years ago and they fizzled out.
