Amazon Smile

Postby Rip Van Winkle on Fri Jun 18, 2021 10:55 am

Got this in an email this morning.

This is the quarterly notification to inform you that AmazonSmile has made a
charitable donation to the charity you’ve selected, Minnesota Gun Owners
Support Fund, in the amount of $629.62 as a result of qualifying purchases
made by you and other customers who have selected this charity.

While $629.62 isn't a ton, every little bit helps.
I will never apologize for being an American.

It keeps growing quarter by quarter, so we're pretty happy about that!

Rip -- You must buy a TON of stuff. I have done Amazon Smile for MN Gun Owners Caucus since last year and I'm still down in the sub-$20 level. Way to GO!

That’s the total amount from everyone who chooses it as their Smile charity.

That smile represents them smiling because you spent your money on Amazon. They could give a rats arse on the donation.

Still a great gift horse. Prices the same as regular Amazon but part goes to charity of your choice.

I work with a small non-profit youth camp. Due in part that we have relatively few members/ supporters, and were late to the Amazon Smile program, our accumulations are almost nil. Amazon kicks in a bit so we get at least $5 every quarter or so.
Not a big fan of Amazon personally, but Smile it is what it is.

So many good causes (MN GOSF, GOF, SAF...) and so few dollars to donate...
