In the past years, we'd been asked why we don't collect food/money for donations.  In 2002 we came up with a design for a donation box that would allow for money collection and, at the same time, would house 2 LED matrix display signs.  The signs allow us to show facts about the display, collected donation totals, etc.  Our main concern about collecting money was theft.  We had to design a box that would be virtually vandalism and theft proof.  The following pictures show the final design/construction of our donation box.
