Mine goes to a local animal rescue group. You just have to make sure you are in amazon.smile, a lot of times I go to Amazon and I'm not actually on the smile page. There is quite a long list of acceptable charities Don't weep for the stupid, or you will be crying all day | |||

Have a very high level of respect for them and their org. Nice to find out I can donate this way. What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone | |||

I almost created a post about this yesterday. My charity is the local humane society. But my post was going to urge people who aren't already involved in Amazon Smile program to do so and choose Judicial Watch as their charity. I send Judicial Watch a annual donation rather than donate to a campaign or political party otherwise they would be my amazon Smile choice.
