AmazonSmile is small penis sex porn videothe latest casualty in the company's cost-cutting efforts.
On Wednesday, Amazon announced it would be winding down the program which donates a percentage of purchases to Amazon customers' charity of choice.

With so many eligible organizations—more than 1 million globally—our ability to have an impact was often spread too thin," said the announcement.

But under the direction of new CEO Andy Jassy, Amazon has been tightening the pursestrings throughout the entire company. Earlier this month, the company began the process of eliminating 18,000 jobs — the largest layoff round in the company's history. In 2022, it implemented a hiring freeze, halted construction of new warehouses, and canceled experimental programs like its telehealth service.
