Support Virtual Ability When You Shop at Amazon

If you are one of the many people who use Amazon.com, you can support Virtual Ability every time you shop. Just use https://smile.amazon.com/ch/26-0613580 to launch Amazon instead of the usual “www.Amazon.com”, and Amazon will automatically donate 0.5% of your purchase price to Virtual Ability, Inc.® There is no additional cost to you (or to VAI) whatsoever. 

Virtual Ability uses the funds generated by this program to help pay for our community services, including our Second Life islands. 

Just remember to use this link when you sign into Amazon, and you will be directly helping us! 

 

How does AmazonSmile work? 

When first visiting AmazonSmile, customers select a charitable organization from almost one million eligible organizations. For eligible purchases at AmazonSmile, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the purchase price to the customer’s selected charitable organization. 

What is the AmazonSmile Foundation? 

The AmazonSmile Foundation is a 501(c)(3) private foundation created by Amazon to administer the AmazonSmile program. All donation amounts generated by the AmazonSmile program are remitted to the AmazonSmile Foundation. In turn, the AmazonSmile Foundation donates those amounts to the charitable organizations selected by our customers. Amazon pays all expenses of the AmazonSmile Foundation; they are not deducted from the donation amounts generated by purchases on AmazonSmile. 

Can Virtual Ability tell what I purchased? 

No. All we get is a donation deposit every few months. We have no way to be able to tell who has participated or what they have purchased.
