The Light the World Giving Machine is a unique red vending machine that provides a fun and memorable way for the public to give to those in need.

Rather than buying candy or snacks for oneself, the Giving Machine allows people to purchase items for someone else- across town or around the world. After the payment process is complete, a card representing the item drops into an enclosed display bin. The generous donor then leaves with a digital receipt and a feeling of joy and gratitude that no candy bar will ever equal.

Participating non-profit organizations receive 100% of every donation to purchase and deliver your selected items. All operating costs for the Light the World Giving Machine initiative are covered by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Donors have the opportunity to cover credit card fees if they desire. Otherwise, the Church will cover those fees.

From November 19th to December 8th, the River Valley Regional Food Bank will be a proud Charity Participant in the Giving Machine at Downtown Bentonville. Located at 100 N Main St, Bentonville, AR 72712.
