[Sherri Brun]

Thanks so much.  I found that out.  I will use Smile as long as I can.

Hi Sherri, I do my shopping in the app, so while in the app you can go to
settings and turn Amazon Smile on and purchases made while in the app will
count. I have seen on the site that you have to shop through
smile.amazon.com but Peggy said she has shopped through the regular site and
her purchases have counted. Maybe some will test this theory, or Peggy will
chime in, but I was confused by that too.

Hello all,

 

We had discussed Amazon Smile and I just purchased an item.  I went to
amazon.com/smile.  When we discussed this, it was said that anything ordered
from Amazon would qualify.  Apparently, you actually have to order from the
Amazon Smile site for the purchase to count.  Here's the message I got and
my impact.  

 

Your orders that have supported charity

Remember, only purchases at smile.amazon.com or through AmazonSmile
activated in the Amazon Shopping app will support your selected charity.

Your total orders

41 orders

Every little bit counts

When millions of supporters shop at AmazonSmile, charitable donations
quickly add up.



You have generated

$9.15

 

 

 

So if we want to raise funds for NFB of Florida, we have to go to Amazon
Smile.  If anyone else sees this differently, please let me know.  Thanks.

                                The National Federation of the Blind knows
that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future.
Every day we raise the expectations

of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind
people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what
holds you back.  

Together with love, hope, and determination, we transform dreams into
reality
