In Europe, every two minutes a child is reported missing. Some of them remain missing for years. Eventually we forget their faces. Child Focus, the Belgian Center for Missing Children, never stops helping the families in their search and getting others involved. To spread hope for all missing children, we designed and created Coins of Hope. One million 2 euro coins with the face of a missing child: Liam Vanden Branden, who has been missing for 20 years, but whose family has never lost hope. On International Missing Children's Day, we brought the Coins of Hope into circulation. Through Coins of Hope, we spread hope for every missing child, from hand to hand. It's a new and permanent medium with infinite impressions across the Eurozone.
