What Exactly is Amazon Smile?

Amazon Smile is a fantastic opportunity for you to help your favorite charitable organizations, when you shop on Amazon.com. It costs you nothing more! When you buy at smile.amazon.com, you will see the same goods sold at the same prices.  A small part of the proceeds goes to our local school.
