Amazon support for NRA foundation

[Just Say Moe]

I just noticed that the Amazon Smile program lists the NRA foundation as a choice:

AmazonSmile is a website operated by Amazon with the same products, prices, and shopping features as Amazon.com. The difference is that when you shop on AmazonSmile, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the purchase price of eligible products to the charitable organization of your choice.

Instead of Amazon.com, go to Smile.amazon.com and login to your account normally. You have to assign the NRA Foundation as your charity. You have to choose products marked "eligible for Smile foundation" in order for it to count - I'm not sure how many products are eligible, but it doesn't cost anything to look if you are already shopping Amazon.

For those of us in retail lacking areas of the country, Amazon is sometimes a necessity and it would be pleasant to peel a few bucks out of Jeff B's pocket help fund the NRA.

Has anybody had any experience with this?

This sounds great, I use Amazon a lot for the simple reason I can generally find what I need and it is to my door in a couple days.I shop local also . Good news

I use Smile Amazon and my donations go to St Marys food bank.

I've been using AmazonSmile for quite some time although for a different charity, the Salvation Army. Nearly everything on the Amazon site is eligible which is listed right below the price. I frequently buy used books through Amazon from Goodwill and they are not eligible.

I would assume this precludes the payment that shopping at Amazon gives websites that lead you there like AccurateShooter and my personal favorite HomeAutomationX. Nothing wakes me in the morning like learning how to install LED strip lights:

Looks like you are right.

I've been 'donating' to the NRA Foundation for the last 5-6 years. Always liked peeling some fruities in Calif. to help support the 2A
