In this day and age, I would presume that a lot of our members shop through Amazon. I know I do! But, do you shop through AmazonSmile? 

AmazonSmile is a simple and automatic way for you to support our Society every time you shop with Amazon at no cost to you. Shopping at smile.amazon.com, you will find the exact same items, low prices, and selection as with Amazon, but with an added bonus. Amazon will donate a portion of the purchase price to your favorite charitable organization.

Setting up an AmazonSmile profile is easy, you just go to smile.amazon.com. Login with your existing Amazon.com account and select your charitable organization (Society of Research Administrators International). Then all you need to do is use Smile for all your purchases. You are able to change the short-cut to AmazonSmile, and you’re done. Just shop as normal.

I have made it a habit of using AmazonSmile instead of Amazon for all my Amazon purchases. I recently received a notification that because of my ‘habit,’ as of May 2019, I have donated $203.44 to the Society of Research Administrators International. 

This is just another way to help the Society of Research Administrators International provide various travel scholarships and awards. Please consider taking the few minutes to sign up and change the icon to benefit the Society that provides premier research management education worldwide.
