Who gets to keep coins out of mall and school fountains?

Question

I always wanted to know what hapens to coins after they get thrown into fountains. Who gets to keep them? Janitors, or someone else?

Answer 1

well, they're meant for wishes. you make a wish and you throw a coin into the fountain. i dont think anybody really gets to keep them.

Answer 2

Some malls donate the money to charity. They usually post a sign near the fountain naming the charity.

Answer 3

Hi The money stays in the fountain til they are ready to clean the fountain and then the money is collected and given to a charity. Yes I believe your wishes, all of our wishes come true. Don't we all want a better life for everyone? When you look into a fountain and you see a portion of it just quadruple it for the parts that you can't see. May all your wishes continue to come true at a time in your life you least expect it.
