There’s an exciting new way you can donate to the UWG Athletic Foundation and contribute to the continued success of the Wolves without spending a single cent more than you normally do. The UWG Athletic Foundation has proudly partnered with Amazon.com through its AmazonSmile program.

The program is a simple and automatic way to support the Wolves every time you shop at Amazon.com, at no cost to you. All you have to do is nominate UWG Athletic Foundation as your chosen charity and Amazon will donate 0.5 percent of every qualifying purchase you make on its site to UWG. No extra expense to you, and a small, but significant, contribution to the Wolves. The only requirements are that you have an Amazon account, that you do your shopping at smile.amazon.com (instead of going to the usual Amazon.com website), and that you nominate UWG as your chosen charity.
“I’m sure many of our alumni and friends use Amazon to make their everyday purchases,” said Executive Director of the UWG Athletic Foundation Matthew Clay. “We hope this year, especially around the holiday season, and anytime into the future, Wolves fans will make their Amazon purchases through AmazonSmile, and choose UWG Athletic Foundation as their charity of choice.”
To participate, simply click on the link below. From that point on, the page for UWG will come up each time you enter the smile.amazon site. We recommend you bookmark AmazonSmile on your browser for quick access.
For more details about the program, go to smile.amazon.com/.
If you don’t have an Amazon account, signing up is free, and students are eligible to receive a free trial of Amazon Prime.
