Amazon Smile FYI
Got an email a few days ago that they are terminating their "Smile" program where a percentage of your purchases go to charity of your choice. Mentioned because I (and probably several here) selected Green Beret Foundation. The BLUF according to them is that "it's not having the effect we'd like because too many charities." So they're going to focus on other large-scale virtue-signalling stuff, but give the charities a 3-month "severance" chunk.
Had a nice run from my perspective, with many $$$$$ flowing there. Here's a snip of the official blurb: Quote:

One major problem was Amazon never created apps for phones and other hand-helds. In today's world,, that's what?? 60% of the market? Additionally, In this 2015 article, it is calculated that the total 12M+ donations made were actually only 00.00012% of the Amazon retail sales :[ Quote:
Also, The Wokes are probably complaining about the ULTRA MAGA RIGHT-WING orgs, like the GBF, who benefit from the merger contributions. :munchin |
I had cancelled Amazon Prime and Kindle Unlimited prior to receiving the email.
Glad I had the opportunity to make my small contributions to GBF via the Smile program. Will use the GBF website now. https://greenberetfoundation.org/donate/ |
