22 Nov Support our Schools with AmazonSmile!
Did you know that you can support our schools just by shopping on Amazon.com? AmazonSmile allows you to do just that. Here’s how:
What is AmazonSmile?
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 (smile.amazon.com), the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the price of eligible purchases to the charitable organizations selected by customers.
How can I raise money for PUC Schools using AmazonSmile?
To ensure that 0.5% of your purchase amount goes to one of our organizations, you can use one of the following links (be sure to bookmark the page of the organization(s) you would like to support!):
For PUC Los Angeles Schools: https://smile.amazon.com/ch/26-3393680
For PUC Valley Schools: https://smile.amazon.com/ch/26-3393593
For PUC Achieve Charter School: https://smile.amazon.com/ch/46-4445378
The first time you visit the page, you will receive a prompt asking if you would like to change the charity to either “Partnerships to Uplift Communities Los Angeles,” “Partnerships to Uplift Communities Valley” or “PUC Achieve Charter School, depending on which link you clicked on above. Click “Yes, change my charity.” You will see that right beneath the Amazon search bar there is text that reads “Supporting: [Selected Organization].” From that point forward, whenever you make purchases through smile.amazon.com, .5% will towards the organization you selected.
In order to ensure that your AmazonSmile purchase goes towards a specific school in our network, be sure to keep track of your purchases and save your receipts (confirmation emails from Amazon showing the total amount spent will be sufficient). In the near future, we will update this post with instructions on how to forward the information to our finance team.
If you have any questions about the AmazonSmile program, please email us at info@pucschools.org.
