- The money is being distributed to 44 United States charities and five global agencies.
During the 2021 Christmas season, some 300,000 people throughout the United States visited a Light the World Giving Machine, donating a combined US$5.8 million. The holiday initiative, now in its fifth year, is sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
The red vending machines, stationed in 10 cities around the country, allow a person to purchase items (such as clothing, meals, clean water and livestock) that will later be distributed to those in need by various charities. Some popular items purchased in 2021 were:
Essential clothing for nearly 20,000 children
A polio vaccine for 837,000 children
Chickens for more than 80,000 families (these animals provide long-term nutrition and income)
Over 10,000 menstrual care kits to keep girls in school
More than 1.7 million meals and 14,000 boxes of fresh produce to feed the hungry
With the war going on right now I know that this will be a perfect time to have the giving machine out for those that wants to donate to those poor people that are suffering in Ukraine 🇺🇦 💔 We are so fortunate here in the US and to think about these people suffering during the cold and hunger out there is very sad 😢
