I thought it might be a good idea to remind you all that you can support Friends Of Uwharrie (FOU) with every purchase you make on Amazon. Follow the link below and set FOU as your non-profit recipient of choice. They'll get 0.5% of each purchase when you buy using www.smile.amazon.com instead of www.amazon.com. Sounds small, but it adds up. And, yes, it's legit. Everything on Amazon is there, the 'smile' prefix just links to the cause.

signed up so that when I click on Amazon it goes to that smile site :) The link above does now redirect you to Doctors without borders for some reason, so I had to search for FOU, but it worked fine.

Thanks!
 
Been doing it since darin (or was it you) posted it up last year...... I must have raised about $10 for them. That would actually really add up if 100 people would do it. Going to get my BIL to do it he must buy $200 off of amazon a week.
 
Me too. Is there a way to track progress?
I do all my shopping and subscribe and save through smiles now.
 
Yes, Darin mentioned in 2014. Couldn't find the mention of it here, so maybe it went out via Facebook or an FOU email.

Been using it a lot these last few months. I normally don't buy online so it took me a few times to make sure I always used the Smile link.

On a side note, I ordered a phone case at 2am Saturday and USPS delivered it Sunday afternoon. Damn!
 
Thanks for doing everything you can to help support our trails / Forest. I have finished my time as FOU COO and stepped down from there for being in any leadership position. Will not talk about it on here but you can hit me up off line if you want. Nothing to do with the good stuff going on with FOU and the great stuff they are doing. Just to PC for my liking. I have not been nor ever will be PC. I like being a Joe for the rest of my time here on Earth.
 
Just a reminder as we go into the holiday season that we can help our local trail system at Uwharrie by shopping on Amazon. By using Amazon Smile you can set your favorite non-profit charity, FRIENDS OF UWHARRIE, as the recipient of 0.5% of all eligible purchases (which are labeled as such on the site; most items are eligible). Read the above posts for more info. The link below will guide you to setting up your recipient selection.
