AIR MILES Commits Up To $1 Million to Support Canadians
Grace Mahas — April 9, 2020 — Social Good
In an effort to support Canadians affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, AIR MILES Reward Program announced a $1 million initiative through a donation matching program to two leading Canadian charities — Kids Help Phone and Food Banks Canada. The loyalty program launched a channel for users to donate their Miles to help these charities through arilmiles.com/donate.
Collectors can donate 500 Dream Miles to Kids Help Phone or Food Banks Canada and AIR MILES will contribute $50, on behalf of the Collector, and match the first $500,000 raised, providing up to $1 million or more in critical support. This funding will go to providing Canadians meals as well as giving vital support and resources to young Canadians during these uncertain times.
