Amazon is ending a charity donation program it ran for a decade in its latest cost-cutting move.
In a blog post on Wednesday, the company said the program, called AmazonSmile, will shut down by February 20 because it had "not grown to create the impact" the retailer had hoped.
"With so many eligible organizations-more than 1 million globally-our ability to have an impact was often spread too thin," the company said. Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said earlier this month the layoffs at his company will impact about 18,000 employees. Jassy said the job cuts will mostly affect the company's retail division and its PXT organizations, which handle human resources and other functions. Other teams, including the company's Alexa division, have also faced layoffs since November.
