Change in the school's Amazon Smile name


Hey hey hey Jaguar families!!!

There has been a change to our 501(c)3 number, so we've had to change our Amazon Smile account.  Unfortunately, we couldn't just change the number in their system, so we have had to make a new Amazon Smile account with a new name.

Please go into your Amazon Smile account and change the name to
Benjamin Franklin Charter School Franklin Parent Advisory Council G

Yes... part of the name is currently cut off... but we are working with Amazon Smile to change our name into something a little easier!  Please make sure to change the charity as soon as possible, as the other account no longer can receive funds.

To change your charity of choice, log into your Amazon account at smile.amazon.com.  Under the Amazon search bar, you will see "Supporting" in gold and the name of the charity.  To the immediate right there is a drop down arrow, click that.  A secondary box will appear, click "change" after the name of the charity.  Just copy and paste the above charity name and VIOLA!  The charity will be changed to the updated BFCS FPAC-Gilbert!

And remember... you MUST be in smile.amazon.com for Amazon to donate any proceeds to us... but don't worry- if you start in the regular Amazon site, you can switch over to the Smile site before your purchase... whatever is in your cart or on your lists can be accessed through the Smile site!  You can even bookmark the Smile site on your computer or smartphone so that you automatically go to the Smile site... 

And for those of you who don't know... Amazon donates to the school!  You can use the same instructions above to enter in the school to receive donations from Amazon!
