Light the World Giving Machine
Light the World Giving Machine
Hope. Now available in a vending machine.
Giving to charity is as easy as buying a candy bar: select an item, type the number, tap your card.
A "vending machine for good," the Giving Machine lets visitors "purchase" real items for people in need -- everything from laundry detergent and diapers for local families to livestock and education supplies for communities worldwide. Each card represents a tangible act of giving, and 100% of every donation goes directly to participating charities: Ada Jenkins Center, American Red Cross, Church World Service, Classroom Central, Common Heart, and MiraVia.
Find the Light the World Giving Machine on the first floor of Carolina Place Mall, between Belk and Dick's Sporting Goods. Open November 19-December 7.
Come experience the joy of giving this season. Buy a gift. Change a life.
