Those who use Amazon for online purchases can automatically donate to ARRL by opting to use AmazonSmile[1] and designating American Radio Relay League (ARRL) as their charity of choice.
The AmazonSmile Foundation donates 0.5% of the purchase price of eligible AmazonSmile items to whichever charity you choose. Product and Marketing Specialist Jackie Ferreira, KB1PWB, reports that the benefit of AmazonSmile to ARRL for 2018 was $8,676, up from $8,022 in 2017.
Family and friends can select ARRL as their charity of choice too. There is no difference between Amazon and AmazonSmile in terms of making purchases.
More information[2] is available on the ARRL website. "We encourage member participation in AmazonSmile," Ferreira said.
