Shop at AmazonSmile, Support betterArts

Shop at Amazon Smile and a portion of your purchase will support betterArts.
AmazonSmile is a new program allowing a portion of all your Amazon purchases to be donated to betterArts in order to support arts and cultural outreach in the North Country.

Here's how it works.

You visit smile.amazon.com (or simply follow this link) and plug "betterArts" in under charitable organization.  In order to browse or shop at AmazonSmile, customers must first select a charitable organization. For eligible purchases at AmazonSmile, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the purchase price to the customer’s selected charitable organization. AmazonSmile is the same Amazon marketplace you're used to—except a percentage of your purchase amounts will be donated to betterArts.

Each quarter, the AmazonSmile Foundation makes donations to eligible charitable organizations. To account for Product returns, a portion of the quarterly donations will be withheld until the following donation cycle.

What is the AmazonSmile Foundation?
The AmazonSmile Foundation is a 501(c)(3) private foundation created by Amazon to administer the AmazonSmile program. All donation amounts generated by the AmazonSmile program are remitted to the AmazonSmile Foundation. In turn, the AmazonSmile Foundation donates those amounts to the charitable organizations selected by our customers. Amazon pays all expenses of the AmazonSmile Foundation; they are not deducted from the donation amounts generated by purchases on AmazonSmile.
