In addition to delivering Prime Day deals to customers, Amazon surprised nonprofits and schools across the country with donations that will help them do what they do best—serve their local communities.
Amazon donated thousands of products—including some sold by small and medium-sized businesses—across the recipient organizations. Many of the items were featured deals on Prime Day including science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) toys, back-to-school items, furniture and home décor, and sports and recreation equipment. We know these groups will put the donations to great use, and help them continue to do great work in communities we are proud to call home.
Amazon donated STEM products, school supplies, and video equipment to Sedalia Park Elementary School to help the school start up their new STEM program, and achieve their local STEM certification. During the Prime Day event, Sedalia Park students, their families, and school staff engaged in a STEM challenge and designed tiles to decorate the school’s new science lab. Plus, students took home a free STEM kit, so they could extend learning at home ahead of their return to school.
