Donate to Ferrum- It Won't Cost You a Penny

Are you someone who wants to giveback, but believes charity begins at home? You could easily feel like if you have to choose between helping a non profit, or spending your money on your home or family, then the home or family will always win. That makes sense to me. 
Do you shop on Amazon? I know I do, and so do millions of people. With Amazon you are afforded the luxury of shopping online for literally millions of items without leaving the comfort of your home. So what does this have to do with Ferrum College? As it turns out, Amazon has a second web address. Its called Amazon Smile. From this site, you can purchase the exact same merchandise, but when it is purchased through the smile site, Amazon will donate a certain percentage of your purchase to a non profit that you designate. Therefore if you are going to buy on Amazon anyway, why not let Jeff Bezos give some money to Ferrum. Share the link with other alumni.  So far, there has been over $169 million donated to non profits by Amazon. Below is the link that will get you started.
