Donation Box is a pretty neat furniture item that you can keep on your island in order to let your visitors reward you. While you can only put 1000 Bells in it at a time, it is still a way to get some Bells from your friends or strangers that visit your island. And the best part is as the owner of the island you can withdraw the amount from it anytime you feel like it. So in this guide let us check how to get the Donation Box in Animal Crossing New Horizons (ACNH) and how to use it.

How to Use the Donation Box in ACNH
As I mentioned above, a Donation Box can be placed on your island, so you can either place it outside your house or on the inside. Once you do then the visitors can choose to give you 1000 Bells. And if you are visiting someone else’s island then face the donation box and press A. This will give you the option to deposit Bells. So the main use of a Donation Box is to get Bells.
Another use for the Donation Box other than donations is for decoration. I mean come on, the box already looks pretty and you can make it prettier by customizing it a bit. You can customize it at a workbench at the cost of 3 Customization kits. The customization of the donation box allows you to change the box color to white or brown. And apply labels to it.
