WOW! Our community partner, Amazon just stepped up big during the KIRO 7 Cares Day of Giving! They just donated $100,000 to be split evenly between The Salvation Army and The American Red Cross! This donation is in addition to three-million dollars Amazon has already donated to help flooding survivors. The need is great, and together we can make a big difference for those who have lost so much to these devastating floods. Give now at kiro7.com/flooding

From November 4–11, Amazon buildings across the country glowed green for #OperationGreenLight, a national initiative led by @NACoTweets and the National Association of County Veterans Service Officers honoring veterans, service members, and their families. We’re proud to join counties and communities nationwide in recognizing those who’ve served, and to thank our Warriors at Amazon employee-led group and the broader veteran community for their leadership, service, and continued impact. Happy Veterans Day!

Thank you @CHCI for visiting HQ2! We were so happy to host your Fall Congressional Interns alongside our DMV Latinos employee-led group at the AWS Skills Center Arlington, which celebrates its 3rd anniversary this Thursday.

Last week, we celebrated the ribbon-cutting of our new 800,000 sq. ft. robotics fulfillment center in Elkhart, Indiana — representing 1,400+ new jobs, advanced technology, and a long-term investment in Indiana’s workforce and economy. We were proud to welcome @GovBraun, @RepRudyYakym, Commissioner Josh Richardson, and more than 100 elected officials and community leaders who joined us to see how Amazon innovation supports good jobs and local growth. As part of our commitment to the community, we awarded a $25,000 grant to @thefivestarlife, supporting youth education and leadership across northern Indiana. A huge thank you to our public partners and Amazon teams for helping make this event a success!

Groundbreaking analysis on technology's role in European competitiveness from @FlintGlobal - technology diffusion contributes over €1T to the EU economy, or nearly 6% of EU GDP. And the costs of restricting technology adoption could cost the EU nearly €200B annually by 2030.
