Picture this: Vending machines that don't dispense snacks or drinks, but instead, opportunities to donate to local charities. This holiday season, as lights twinkle and carols fill the air, the Giving Machines invite you to #LightTheWorld in a truly meaningful way.
What are Light the World Giving Machines?
Vending machines that make donating to charity as easy as buying a candy bar. In 2017 the Giving Machine was born in response to a heartfelt question, "What if giving to someone in need was as easy as buying a snack from a vending machine?" The purpose of Light the World Giving Machines is to give anyone, no matter their age or means, the chance to actively participate in a giving experience.
How do they work?
Select an item, add to cart, swipe a debit or credit card and a card representing your gift drops into a bin so you can watch the donations pile up. Get a receipt by text or email. Your information is not collected or shared.
Where are they located?
A bank of four machines will be in the Cherry Creek North Winter Wanderland near the entrance to the Cherry Creek Holiday Market, located between 1st and 2nd Ave. on Fillmore St.
