In four locations across the country, starting Dec. 13 and ending Dec. 19, Canadians pledged to do acts of kindness. The Kindness Exchange was organized by Amazon Canada, with gift cards of $50 each given out to the approximately 1,700 participants.

“About 400 of the pledges were volunteer pledges,” Derek Hooey, operations manager at Amazon’s Mississauga office, told The Epoch Times. People would leave their email addresses and Amazon would help connect them with volunteer opportunities afterward.
