Just as an FYI for those who may not know, if you purchase things through Amazon using smile.amazon.com rather than the regular website, a portion of every purchase will be donated to the charity of your choice, which, in my case, is Give Kids the World. It's exactly the same as the regular site in every way except for this feature.

Yep - luckily I became aware of it through the podcast awhile back, and have been using it, and spreading the word to everyone I can about it, ever since then. Thanx for mentioning it again, to make even more peeps aware of a quick, painless, easy way to "pay it forward"!! And Amazon should definitely be thanked and congratulated for this as well - matter of fact - I'm going to head over there and send them an e-mail now!

Yes. It's a great program and I find it hard to believe more people don't take advantage of it. I'm tied to a different charity with a similar cause -I've been donating since its inception(maybe 2-years ago). Anyone who spends money at Amazon should be signing up for this -it's easy. Thanks for giving this a little promotion ...hopefully they mention this on the next podcast!

I figured most folks here would be in the know. I wasn't until fairly recently and no one in my family/circle of friends was either until I told them about it, so I'm trying to spread the word whenever I can. It's really a shame it's not more widely used. Appreciate the responses!

I did this to order some supplies for the Hershey GKTW DisMeet coming up.
