Giving Machines Return to Denver

Light the World Giving Machines. The unique vending machines where donors choose specific items for charity.

Top-selling items in this year’s Giving Machines include hot meals, bus passes, blankets and first aid kits, with donors also giving ballet costumes for aspiring dancers with Down syndrome, a camp experience for local kids who’ve never been to the mountains and skills certifications for job seekers.

The Giving Machines are located at 2nd Avenue and Fillmore Plaza in the Cherry Creek Holiday Market. They remain open 24/7 through New Year’s Day. www.givingmachinesdenver.org.
