    Amazon Smile Donation


    June 11, 2018, 09:40 AM

    So I've been using Amazon Smile for a few years, and recently switched over to supporting CORP through it. I haven't seen it mentioned here though, so I wanted to:

    • Make sure my Amazon Smile donations are actually going to someone here (Amazon says I've donated $14 to date out of the $75 CORP has received as a charity)
    • Let others know that it's an incredibly easy way to donate if it actually is going to the trails

    Basically if you go to smile.amazon.com instead of www.amazon.com it will donate 0.5% of the purchase price to the charity you choose. It's free, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who shops on Amazon.

    Can anybody confirm this is being used?

    Most definitely!  If you scroll to the bottom of the page, you'll see we list it as a sponsor.  I use it every time I buy from Amazon, although I'm now trying to not make Jeff Bezos any richer if I can help it.  Thanks for the reminder, we should do more about promoting it.
