The Giving Machine – Now through January 1st – The Promenade at DTS

Or a year of dental care, or nursing services for a disabled adult, or a pair of shoes for a child in Southern Nevada. With the #LightTheWorld Giving Machines, that’s exactly what happens. The Giving Machines provide a way for people to quickly and easily help those in need and make the Christmas season a little more meaningful for themselves – and countless others.
