I'm partial to the American Brain Tumor Association myself, however, the important thing is that it doesn't cost any extra or add any extra cost to the item, it's completely free on your part so choose something that is near and dear and start giving!  You can change your charity at any time.  With so many charities out there, do your research to make sure that the charity gives back to the cause that your are supporting.  There have been recent headlines about unscrupulous charity's.  You want to make sure that a large portion is going to the programs and not fundraising or administration.   There is a good website, charitynavigator.com that breaks down charities and where that money goes to.  I checked this also, but the Quins didn't pop up.  I'm guessing after match drink ups at the Rover aren't a qualifying area this site tracks!  But we do have an awesome Toys for Tots drive so that should make up for something! Just remember when you go to Amazon you need to type smile.amazon.com to get to the right shopping page, select your charity, and then bookmark it. Just thought I would pass this along as there are a lot of good causes out there to get behind.  This info may have already been distributed and I may have missed it.   To the executive committee: there is a pop up that says that Amazon Smile will reach out to the Denver Harlequins to make sure they are ready to accept donations so if you haven't already you may want to look into that to see what it's all about.   'Quin Pride....Nixon Tom's Shout Outs a few years ago for a special thanks in donations to get the 501(c)(3) set up, that are worth mentioning again.
