Show Low to host 'Giving Machine' pop-up in November; mayor urges residents to attend
Mayor John Leach Jr. announced on the Mayor's Minute that the Giving Machine, a charitable vending‑machine pop‑up, will be in Show Low this November and will launch with an event on Nov. 18.

Sedette, a guest on the program and representative of the Giving Machine project, said the machine will be open daily from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., with nightly programs scheduled at 6 p.m. "We have the giving machine coming to Show Low this November, and we're super excited," Sedette said. "The machine will be open from 9AM to 9PM with events nightly at 6PM."

The machine will be located at the Meadow, inside the barn, according to the mayor and the presenter. Sedette said the Giving Machine operates like a vending machine but, instead of dispensing snacks, it dispenses charitable items: donors insert money and select items such as bedding for people experiencing homelessness or books for children in foster care. She said price points will range from very low to higher amounts so residents can donate at different levels.

Sedette said three local charities will benefit directly, and the Giving Machine will represent five nearby communities: Payson, St. Johns, Eagar, Show Low and Pinetop. "A 100% of what's donated goes to the charity," she said, adding there are no administrative fees.

Mayor Leach urged residents to attend the Nov. 18 launch and to "crowd the Meadow" to support the event. "Let's stuff ourselves in that barn to support this great event," he said.

Organizers encourage residents who want to donate or attend the nightly events to plan for the machine's hours. No permits, volunteer signups, or other logistical details were discussed on the program; organizers did not specify the names of the three local charities on air. The mayor closed the segment by thanking Sedette and wishing viewers well.
