People Still Plugging Kindness Meters

People continue to put money into the City of Vernon’s kindness meters.

Five of the orange-coloured meters were installed in 2016 to give people a way to help local charities, instead of giving money to panhandlers.

The city says donations totalling $637 have been put in the meters so far this year, with $1,993 donated all of last year.

The city says the meters have not been a common target of theft.
