AmazonSmile is a website operated by Amazon with the same products, prices, and shopping features as Amazon.com. The difference is that when you shop on AmazonSmile, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the purchase price of eligible products to the charitable organization of your choice.
How it Works

All you have to do is visit smile.amazon.com and sign in with your Amazon credentials. Then, you get to choose your favorite charity to donate to. Then, shop as usual. When you are ready to shop just make sure you are logging into your account by going to smile.amazon.com first. If you just visit Amazon.com, it won’t contribute the same.
