BECKLEY, WV (LOOTPRES) — Raleigh County Community Action Association (RCCAA) is reminding local shoppers that supporting community programs can be as easy as doing your regular online shopping — thanks to AmazonSmile.
AmazonSmile is a charitable program operated by Amazon that offers the same products, prices, and shopping experience as the main Amazon.com site. The key difference: when you shop through AmazonSmile, the AmazonSmile Foundation donates 0.5% of your eligible purchases to the charitable organization of your choice — at no extra cost to you.
By choosing Raleigh County Community Action Association as your designated charity, every eligible purchase you make helps fund vital local programs that assist families, seniors, and individuals in need throughout the community.
“It’s one of the simplest ways to give back,” RCCAA said in a statement. “Every time you shop, you’re directly helping us provide essential services, from housing assistance and family support to education and community development programs.”
To get started, visit smile.amazon.com, log in with your Amazon account, and select Raleigh County Community Action Association as your preferred charity. From then on, a portion of every eligible purchase will automatically benefit the organization.
For those who already use Amazon regularly, this small change can make a big difference in supporting local initiatives across Raleigh County.
