HELP SGS WHILE YOU SHOP 
Black Friday and Cyber Monday, kicking off the holiday shopping season, are just around the corner. Think about helping SGS while you do your online shopping by using AmazonSmile with Seattle Genealogical Society selected as your charity of choice.

  AmazonSmile is a website operated by Amazon with the same products, prices, and shopping features as Amazon.com. The difference is that when you shop on AmazonSmile, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the purchase price of eligible products to the charitable organization you choose.
