Amazon Smile

What is Amazon Smile?

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. Every item available for purchase on www.amazon.com is also available on AmazonSmile (smile.amazon.com) at the same price. You will see eligible products marked "Eligible for AmazonSmile donation" on their product detail pages.

How does this help the Weybridge Volunteer Fire Department?

Since the Weybridge Volunteer Fire Department is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we are eligible to be your charity. All you have do is, when you log in, and you select your charity, select "Weybridge Volunteer Fire Dept Inc" (you must search for it exactly as it's written here)
