Light the World Giving Machines Launch in Utah

[@cherruthrose33]

What a great initiative! I always carry grocery gift cards for the homeless. I'd love to see the Giving Machines more worldwide. Good job Saints! Light the way!

I just seen this on KZbin. What a great way to help those in need. A great representation of Christlike. Thank you guys/gals for doing this. You have our support from Gilbert, AZ.

😯❤️😃 I'm interested in how the machines do in Japan, since there's a vending machine for literally everything there! 🤔

Yet another way to de-personalize Christmas. Put your money in a vending machine and you won't have to face another Human being. Nice Plan.

[@jennted]

You know, one can do this and also do other service that is face to face. It doesn't have to be a one and done service option. Everyone gets to choose how they serve.

[@katherinem.4414]

Some things far distant can only be done in this kind of way….the church has to collaborate with others, that is how they get so much done….they cannot do it on their own. But the service hours they do give is incredible. You have to remember, we are growing, but we are still only so many.

Imagine getting mad that millions are being voluntarily given to help people.

[@kcc2850]

This is a disingenuous charity effort by the Church, and is really intended as a Public Relations effort. Why do I say this? Well, they are only putting very few machines out, showing that they really don't care about engaging the community to help. In all of Utah, they have ONLY 2 LOCATIONS (Provo and Salt Lake City). Why don't they have like 20 locations across the entire State? Also, only 1 location in Las Vegas area (population of 2 million people). The idea is great, but the execution is phony...if they cared about getting donations from the community they'd put out more vending machines.

[@michaelhutchings6602]

Ugh! That awful Church giving millions in aid to people! How dare they!
