Are you searching for ways to give back to your local community and favorite charities this holiday season but feel like you just don’t have any extra time or funds to offer with all the upcoming events, shopping, and to-do’s on your plate? Consider the Amazon Smile program- a program designed specifically for those who don’t have much time to spare but still want to support the charity they love most by simply shopping on the Amazon website or app! It is a seamless and effortless way you can shop for your wants and needs and give back at the same time. Amazon donates .5% of the price of all your eligible purchases directly back to the Valle Catholic Schools Foundation. Now that’s what we call shopping with a cause!
There is no upcharge to you when shopping through https://smile.amazon.com/. Every item that is available on Amazon.com is also available on Amazon Smile at the same price. You can have peace of mind that your everyday items ordered from Amazon are not only meeting you and your family’s needs, but also directly impacting the school that you deeply cherish.
