Good morning, Pocatello.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints launched its worldwide 'Light the World Giving Machine' on Wednesday and will open a kiosk at the ICCU headquarters at 4400 Central Way in Chubbuck at 11 a.m. on Saturday, November 15.

The kiosk will stay open through November 30 and lets residents donate to local and international charities with 100 percent of every contribution going directly to groups like United Way Southeastern Idaho and Bannock Youth Foundation — boosting community support in East Idaho.

Grants and local support are funding new public libraries in small Idaho towns that will offer reliable internet and free meeting spaces, and planning is underway for their openings soon—bringing valuable community resources to rural areas.

The annual Angels with Santa event will be held on November 22 at 5:00 p.m. at the Museum of Clean in Pocatello to help families in need at Christmas+ dinner, entertainment, raffles and a live auction are planned while sponsors and donations are still sought.
