Amazon.com has a program called AmazonSmile where they donate .5% of your purchase total to the charity of your choice. That may not seem like a large percentage, but every bit helps. The way to take advantage of this program is to go through the AmazonSmile portal rather than through the basic Amazon.com portal. Then shop as you normally would. The first time that you enter the AmazonSmile portal, you will be asked to select a charity to link to your account. You can search by name.
We selected our local food bank. My sister is supporting her local animal shelter. It is great that Amazon is allowing you to support local charities in addition to the larger national and international charities.
Like many today, we shop a lot at Amazon. This just helps make Amazon a better deal still.
