 What is AmazonSmile?
AmazonSmile is a simple way for you to support PAWS every time you shop, at no cost to you. When you shop at smile.amazon.com, you’ll find the exact same low prices, vast selection and convenient shopping experience as Amazon.com, with the added benefit that Amazon will donate 0.5% of your eligible purchases to the PAWS organization.

How do I shop at AmazonSmile?
To shop at AmazonSmile simply go to smile.amazon.com from the web browser on your computer or mobile device. You may also want to add a bookmark to smile.amazon.com to make it even easier to return and start your shopping at AmazonSmile.

Can I use my existing Amazon.com account on AmazonSmile?
Yes, you use the same account on Amazon.com and AmazonSmile. Your shopping cart, Wish List, wedding or baby registry, and other account settings are also the same.

How do I select a charitable organization to support when shopping on AmazonSmile?
On your first visit to AmazonSmile - smile.amazon.com, you need to select PAWS for FRIENDSHIP  to receive donations from eligible purchases before you begin shopping. We will remember your selection, and then every eligible purchase you make at smile.amazon.com will result in a donation. 

If you would prefer to purchase items directly for our organization as a donation you can reference our Amazon wish list by clicking the button below.

 Goodsearch is a Yahoo powered search engine that you use exactly as you would any other search engine. The difference is, and here's the exciting part, each time you do a search, about a penny is raised for your favorite non-profit or school. The more you search, the more you earn for your cause and combined with millions of others in the Goodsearch movement, your searches can make a real impact. Put simply: YOU search - WE give! 

I am sure that many of you out there have heard of GoFundMe and the great work they do. For those that do not know them, they are instrumental in providing a forum so that people, like you and I, can donate to their favorite cause, charity or event.  We are very fortunate, in that GoFundMe has selected PAWS as a charity that can be accessed through their network. If you would like to help PAWS, especially in this time of "social distancing" and the cancellation of so many of our charity fund raising events, then please use the button below and make a generous donation.

As always, we thank each and every one of you for your continued support.

 SHOPPING:  

Shopping via iGive is essentially a store rebate program where iGive members have the opportunity to donate their rebate to their chosen cause. iGive receives compensation beyond the posted donation amounts, and many stores pay to advertise on our site. We manage with a streamlined overhead, and use of the best in automated systems to provide our members and causes with this free service. When iGive members shop via our special links, an "iGive Cookie" is assigned to your browser. This tells the store, "Here is an iGive Member" using a meaningless member ID number. The store reports back with this number and the amounts for the donation to your cause. We never have access to any payment information. 

Ways to Use iGive:
      • Search the Web via iSearchiGive.com
      • Starting at the iGive.com or iGive.com/mobile sites.
      • Installing the iGive Button
      • Installing the iGive App for iPhone, IPad or Android (visit the App Store 

              and search "iGive" - free)
      • Using links in the iGive Newsletters

The CFC special solicitation period will be open for federal civilian and military employees from April 20 through June 30. This is an opportunity for the federal community to help charities even more, with 100% of donations going to the selected charities (no distribution fees withheld). Donors can make supplemental, one-time or recurring donations to 2019 CFC-participating charities via credit card, debit card, or bank transfer. In addition, if a federal employee did not make a payroll pledge during the 2019 CFC campaign, they can do so during this time frame.

Thank YOU again for the continued support and services your charity provides to our communities across the country, and around the world, especially during this challenging time.
