Marginalized Toronto neighbourhood finds way to hack Amazon for donations Toronto
Executive Director at the Jane/Finch Centre Michelle Dagnino told blogTO that the donations will be used to fund the centre's various programs and services, including mental health support, settlement services, financial empowerment programming, and more.
"Our programs are created in response to the systemic gaps and inequity of social services offered in the Jane-Finch community," Dagnino said."Donations are imperative to the sustainability of our work, providing us with the much-needed funds to support our programming." She said the Jane/Finch Centre is not asking people to necessarily support Amazon or sign up for Amazon Prime, but instead, to target people who already have a subscription and ask them to use their free credits towards a local community organization.
If viewers don't use their free subscription credits, the funds go unused, and then go right back to Amazon. "This is a bit of a way for us to turn the tables on a company that normally brings no benefits to local communities," Dagnino explained.
