The red vending machines allow people to buy something for someone else in need through partnering local, national and international charity organizations, with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints covering all operating costs.

This year, people can donate online at GivingMachine.org. Mobile machines will stay in some cities for a few days while others will remain in the same location the whole season.
