Have you seen this yet?

Amazon will donate 0.5% of your purchase to NCWW.

Will take you there with NCWW pre-selected as your charity.

[Mike Davis]

Type smile in their search bar then sign up for it.

Just signed up. I buy a lot on Amazon.

If you sign up, make sure to log into smile.amazon.com when you shop there.

When I logged into Amazon today I got a pop-up that asked me to join smile and pick a charity. Guess which one I picked. Thanks for the heads-up Mike. This is a great opportunity for our members to make a contribution with very little effort and no additional expense.

With as much as I use Amazon and as much as I see it mentioned here in forums, this could really add up.

Can we / should we "sticky" this?

I am thinking about it now - but my CRS migh kick in by Monday morning!

 

[Mike Davis]

done.

 

[Hmerkle]

I think this is really cool.
Getting something back while doing something you normally do!

 

[Rob]

Done, now if I can remember to sign in instead of just going to amazon.

Amazon is offering an additional $5 donation(one per customer) for purchases between today and March 31. If there is something you want on Amazon, now is the time to buy it.

Thanks Mike - great timing. I was all set to order a DeWalt 745 planer package last night, but for some reason decided to wait until this morning. Signed up for Amazon.smile and ordered.

I can't get their Search bar to find NCWW. What keywords do you use?

 

[Mike Davis]

Search for Amazon Smile then there will be a popup to choose from.

Reggie,
Try this link:
http://smile.amazon.com/gp/charity/change.html/ref=smi_se_abtpo_change_cycsc

I have already signed up so It may not work and it may try to take you to MY Amazon... (doesn't look like it...)

There is a box that says "Or pick your own charity..."
I entered North Carolina Woodworkers" and was able to select it!

Hope that helps?

Be sure your purchase is marked with "Eligible for AmazonSmile donation".

I was looking at an item with different quantities available from different vendors and not all were eligible.

 

[ScottM]

Well I just ordered a couple things on my want list (non-woodworking). NCWW should be getting the $5 plus the percentage.

 

[ScottM]

For those have not signed up yet here is the email I rec'd.

Dear Scott Miller, Shop at smile.amazon.com between now and March 31, 2014, and Amazon will donate an extra $5 to the charity of your choice. This is in addition to the regular donation of 0.5% of the purchase price. Up to $1,000,000 extra will be donated to eligible charities as a result of this promotion. Restrictions apply
