ST. LOUIS COUNTY, Mo. – It’s the season for giving and many cities are putting up holiday giving machines.

One of them comes to St. Louis this Wednesday. It works like a vending machine, but instead you purchase something to support area charities. The items include food, water sources, blankets, hygiene kits, vaccines, and more.
