Giving Machine Austin

We recently held our check presentation for the charities supported by the 2025 Giving Machine Austin—and we’re incredibly grateful for the impact made.

A sincere thank you to the more than 5,500 visitors who stopped by the Giving Machine at The Crossover in Cedar Park. Your generosity made this possible.

We also appreciate The Crossover and Adam Powell, General Manager, along with his team, for welcoming the Giving Machine. We’re looking forward to returning in 2026.

Most importantly, thank you to the participating charities who make this effort meaningful: BiG (Brookwood in Georgetown), Brighter Days, Foster Village, Heart Gift, Hope Alliance, Special Olympics, and CARE International.

This marked the second year The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints hosted a Giving Machine in the Austin area. Across the 2025 holiday season, the Light the World Giving Machines reached nearly 1 million visitors in 126 cities worldwide—resulting in millions of donated items to support meals, vaccinations, and essential care.

Thank you for being part of something that truly makes a difference.

Finally made it to and it was so great! Wonderful program, great food, fun gift shop, awesomeness all around❤️

It isn’t about doing a lot—it’s about inviting the light of Christ into the everyday. Small, consistent steps can transform an entire year.

Join us at The Crossover in Cedar Park and give to one of our fantastic charities! The Austin Giving Machines will be at The Crossover through Sunday, December 7. You don't want to miss out on this opportunity to give. Thank you.
