Or you can just click this link to go straight to the amazon smile impact page.

Step 2. In the top right you will see ‘Your Current Charity’ listed and a button beneath that says ‘Change Charity’. Select ‘Change Charity’

Step 3. A new screen will appear with suggested charities by amazon. In order to find Congregation Shaare Shalom you must search for it. Find the search bar beneth ‘Or pick your own charitable organization’ and type ‘Congregation Sha are Shalom’. It is important that you put the space between Sha and are because that is how the name is entered in amazon and you will not find it if you search for it as a full name. Once you enter the name in the search bar select the ‘Search’ button found to the right.

Step 4. There are two Congregation Sha Are Shalom so make sure to select the one with the location of ‘Waldorf MD’.


Step 5. You will know that it is successfully when it says you have changed your charity to Congregration Sha Are Shalom.

Remember, you must purchase through smile.amazon.com in order for the donation to count. If you order from normal amazon.com the donation will not go through. Thank you so much and we look forward to receiving your donations through AmazonSmile!
