Are you ready for the holidays?

Do you shop on Amazon.com for holiday gifts or other items? Would you like a percentage of your purchase price to help needy youngsters in our area? Then AmazonSmile Foundation is for you!

When you are ready to shop, go to smile.amazon.com. Millions of items are eligible for a 5% donation to SaddleBrooke Community Outreach (SBCO) and are marked “eligible” on the product detail pages. All your current accounts remain the same, which includes shopping cart, Wish List, registries and other account settings.

AmazonSmile donates the 5% on the purchase price, minus whatever rebates you might have and does not include shipping, handling, gift wrapping fees, taxes or service charges. Because Amazon is making the donation to SBCO you cannot claim it as a tax deduction. Watch for special promotions that might increase the amount you gift to SBCO. Imagine the impact your purchases can have on the lives of our neighboring youngsters!
