Amazon Rocks Purple

May is Lupus Awareness Month, and Amazon Transportation Services and Fulfillment Centers are coming together with Amazon Web Services to raise awareness and funds in support of lupus research, care and support services, and educational resources and programs for those living with lupus.

Amazon Rocks Purple is a month-long campaign that unites employees across Amazon Transportation Services, Fulfillment Centers, and Amazon Web Services to raise awareness and funds for lupus in honor of lupus warriors and their loved ones at Amazon. Each May, in recognition of Lupus Awareness Month, employees join forces with the Lupus Foundation of America to get active, participate in awareness initiatives, and support fundraising efforts - making a meaningful impact in the fight against lupus.

The program was established by the Middle Mile Team in 2023 in memory of former Middle Mile Performance Manager Reenu Parmar, whose legacy continues to inspire this incredible campaign.
