| SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | JULY 2021 | 11
Charity Week 2021 is over, but you can still support local charities
just by shopping! That's right, if you buy anything from Amazon, you
can choose to support the Sun Lakes Country Club Charitable Trust,
which distributes grants to two dozen local registered 501c nonprofit
organizations in the San Gorgonio Pass area.
AmazonSmile is separate from Amazon's main site, but offers the
same items, prices, and benefits as Amazon.com and yes, you can use
it if you have Prime. There are millions of items for sale, and many
are eligible for a donation.
The prices on AmazonSmile are the same as on the main site.
Adding a donation does not raise the price. When you purchase an
eligible item, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5 percent of
the purchase price to Sun Lakes CC Charitable Trust. There is no cost
to the buyer and 100 percent of the donation generated from eligible
purchases goes directly to the charity. It is completely seamless.
So if you are shopping on Amazon anyway, why not help make
a difference and support our local charities? Tell your friends and
family all over the world; they can choose to support SLCCCT when
they shop too! It all adds up.
Here is how it works:
1. Visit smile.amazon.com.
2. Sign in with the same log in and password you use for
Amazon.com.
3. Select Sun Lakes Country Club Charitable Trust as your
charity.
4. Start shopping! Remember to checkout at smile.amazon.com
to generate donations for your chosen charity. Always be sure
you are logged in to smile.amazon.com before you start an
order.
Look for the "Eligible for AmazonSmile donation" stamp in the
product's description. If it is not there, the product will not count
toward your total donation. After your first purchase, you will also be
able to see how much has been raised for the charity.
Your continued support in this small way will help make a big
difference.
