The unofficial online home for fans of the UAB Blazers. Part of Collegiate Sports Nation (CSN).

For those of you that frequent Amazon to the detriment of the local economy, they offer a little known program to raise money for non-profit organizations.

It's easy and doesn't cost you anything extra. The only difference is you have to enter their website from smile.amazon.com. Your current login and account information remains the same.

Here's how you do it:

1. Type smile.amazon.com into your browser address bar, hit enter and then login with your amazon credentials.



2. After logging in the first time, you will be directed to the page below:



3. Under the heading “Or pick your own charitable organization” enter “UAB” then click “Search” . Several UAB charitable options will appear, including the Athletics Foundation and the Alumni Society. Click select next to the UAB Athletics Foundation.

4. You will be redirected to the page below. Check the box next to “Yes” and then click “Start Shopping”



That’s all there is to it. Just be sure to visit smile.amazon.com every time you normally visit Amazon to make sure your eligible purchases are having a portion of the price donated to the UAB Athletics Foundation.

Pretty cool. What portion of the sale is donated?

Just used it.

i had already set mine up last year for Wounded Warriors Project

to change it, I had to

click "Accounts & Lists"

click "Your AmazonSmiles"

follow Blazerjay's steps

I have been doing this for a while now. I would be interested to know how this has worked out.
Is there anyone that can figure that out?
I spend a couple thousand or more. $10 for UAB each year. Maybe more.
