    another suggestion is to see if you can get some large plastic sweety type jars (donated if poss) print a pic of the child and a description of the trip underneath and tape onto the front of the jar and ask people to donate their change. then take them to local small shops and pubs and ask if they will put them next to the till. make sure you collect them after an agreed time - allowing for counting them etc. it may be mostly pennies but you may be surprised how much you raise this way. some people will put fivers or tenners in.
