With shopping season upon us once again, United Church Homes announces a new way to donate, simply by doing what you already do. When shopping online, try AmazonSmile instead of purchasing from Amazon. Here are the details:

AmazonSmile is a website operated by Amazon that lets customers enjoy the same wide selection of products as on Amazon.com. The difference is that when customers shop on AmazonSmile, the foundation will donate 0.5% of the price of eligible purchases to United Church Homes when selected by customers.

Here’s what to do:

1. Log onto Amazonsmile.com
   (In order to pick United Church Homes as your Charity of Choice, you must go to Amazonsmile.com, not just Amazon.com)
2. If you already have an Amazon account, go ahead and log in.
   If you do not have an Amazon Account, under the log in area, click on “Create an Account” and follow the prompts
3. Click on “Your Account”
4. Click on “Charity of Choice” or “Change Charity”
   A prompt will come up to Choose one of our spotlight charities OR pick your own charitable organization. Click on “Pick your own charitable organization.”
5. In the Search window, type in: United Church Homes
   United Church Homes will come up and will have Marion, Ohio listed beside it as well.
6. Click “Select”.
   The following window will appear. Dismiss and go shopping!
