I am absolutely disgusted and have NO idea how I missed that Amazon is ending it's, 'Amazon Smile' donation program.
A program that EMPOWERED each Amazon user to choose what non-profit THEY wanted to support, through their purchases.
"The e-commerce giant had launched AmazonSmile in 2013, contributing 0.5% of every purchase made by participating customers to the charity of their choosing. As of 2022, the company said it has donated $449 million to various charities."-AP Article
*So, Amazon donated $449 million, over NINE years with this program.*
(Remember, that is the amount paid by Amazon based off of 0.5% of PURCHASES made by users who even participated in their Smile program.)
Wanna know how much Amazon made in 2022 alone?
$514 BILLION.
This is absolutely disgusting.
