Donors Support Charities Through AmazonSmile and Fred Meyer Community Rewards Program

Portland, OR. If you’ve been using Amazon’s delivery service even more during the COVID-19 “stay at home” order, there’s a way for you to simultaneously help your favorite charity.  You can help your favorite nonprofit by taking the time to sign up for AmazonSmile.

AmazonSmile is a website operated by Amazon that lets customers enjoy the same wide selection of products, low prices, and convenient shopping features as on Amazon.com. The difference is that when customers shop on AmazonSmile (smile.amazon.com), the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the price of eligible purchases to the charitable organizations selected by customers. Organizations must be registered and in good standing with the IRS as a 501(c)(3) to be eligible to participate. When first visiting AmazonSmile, customers are prompted to select a charitable organization from almost one million eligible organizations. In order to browse or shop at AmazonSmile, customers must first select a charitable organization. For eligible purchases at AmazonSmile, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the purchase price to the customer’s selected charitable organization.

AmazonSmile is also running a donation drive for COVID-19 disaster relief. You can help support charities impacted by COVID-19 by donating to Feeding America, the American Red Cross, and Save the Children.
