Smiles Fade--Losing AmazonSmile

Last month, Amazon decided to end its charity donation program, AmazonSmile. This program launched in 2013, and 0.5% of every purchase made by a participating customer went to a charity of their choosing. For the last 10 years, many of you have been generously picking One House at a Time (OHAAT) as your charity, and we are so grateful for the support you gave our small nonprofit via AmazonSmile.  


Naturally, we are disappointed by this news.  Every donation, no matter the size, helps get a child off the floor and into a bed of their own. We know that the supporters of the Beds for Kids program are looking for what they can do now that AmazonSmile has ended. Here are some other ways you can continue to support our mission to end child bedlessness, one house at a time:

 

  • Donate directly on our website (monthly donations of any amount are welcome!)

  • Check to see if your employer will match your gifts

  • Shop one of our wishlists--Target, Walmart or Amazon

  • Donate needed items. We are hosting our Dream Big campaign for the month of March and collecting new twin sheets, pillows, blankets, and children's toothbrushes. Even though the month is almost over, the need for these items continues year round. Please click here to view donation locations

  • Host a donation drive to collect items needed for the bedtime bags given to children in our program

  • Give the gift of your time by volunteering

  • Follow us on social media: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTubeand TikTok

  • Stay tuned as we investigate other creative ways to support OHAAT


Thank you for joining with us to support local families when they need it most. We are grateful for your continued partnership.
