We basically partner with businesses that have a "charity" program and allow us to keep a portion of the sale.  I know we've done that with giant eagle, kroger, and amazon smile.  Each is set up differently.  We are not encouraging people to shop there.  We are simply saying that if you shop there, please list us as a charity in the program so we receive a portion of the funds spent.

Thanks George.  I think it's important that we regularly learn more
about how much money we earn from different events and collections so
that we can possibly be more generous to support FUUSM in effective
ways.  I plan to increase my donation slightly and it's my hope that the
solar class is filled so the money from that will make up for some of
the collection plate loss.

My questions:  How much do we get from Amazon?  And what is the true
cost of using Amazon as our department store donor?  The cost to our
community's local businesses?  Annie
