KW Cares has partnered with AmazonSmile, a website operated by Amazon that lets customers enjoy the same wide selection of products, low prices, and convenient shopping features as always. The difference is that when customers shop on AmazonSmile, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the price of eligible purchases to the charitable organizations selected by customers.

How do I shop and help KW Cares at the same time?

If you have an existing Amazon.com account, you use the same account on AmazonSmile.  The only catch is you’ll need to access the AmazonSmile link each time you shop.  You can start shopping and giving at the same time:

1. Direct Link: Use the yellow "go to smile.amazon.com" button above. It will take you to AmazonSmile and you can shop as you usually do on Amazon.
2. Create a Bookmark
   Visit AmazonSmile and press Control B on your keyboard to create a bookmark for easy access to the site.
3. Utilize Amazon Assistant
   Install the Amazon Assistant to get easy access to Product Comparisons, Deal of the Day, and time-saving shortcuts, which all link to smile.amazon.com. 

4. Browser Extensions. Once you choose Keller Williams Realty Cares as your charity of choice, you can add the AmazonSmile extension to your browser of choice, which will ensure each time you shop Amazon will give to KW Cares:

• Google Chrome: AmazonSmile 1Button for Chrome 
• Firefox:Amazon SMILE!
• Safari: KeepOnSmiling for Safari
