Shop at Amazon and Earn Money for BBK

March 26, 2014 by NVo

Have you noticed the new AmazonSmile banner on our right sidebar menu? Books Between Kids recently signed up as a charitable organization with AmazonSmile, which allows us to receive 0.5% of the price of eligible AmazonSmile purchases.

AmazonSmile is a website operated by Amazon that lets customers enjoy the same wide selection of products, low prices, and convenient shopping features as on Amazon.com. The difference is that when customers shop on AmazonSmile, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the price of eligible purchases to the charitable organization you select – we hope you select Books Between Kids.

Each time you shop at Amazon, rather than going to amazon.com, go to smile.amazon.com/ch/46-2054301 instead. The link will automatically select Books Between Kids as the receiving organization.

You will need to be a registered user with Amazon to participate. To verify that you are contributing to Books Between Kids, look for our name at the top of the AmazonSmile page once you have logged in.
