What are the Giving Machines?:
The Giving Machines are vending machines with a Christmas twist. Instead of purchasing something for yourself, you can purchase something useful to donate to others. When you use the Giving Machines, giving as Jesus gave is both simple and meaningful.
100% of these donations are distributed to charity partners like CARE.org, UNICEF, WaterAid, Water for People, and more. In 2018, the Giving Machines raised over $2.3 million with the help of over 92,000 people. Read more about it here:
Administrative costs for the Giving Machines are covered by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
