You can raise funds for our school as you do your holiday shopping by using AmazonSmile and/or Benefit Mobile!

AmazonSmile: Do you shop online at Amazon?  If so, you can be raising money for our school just by using AmazonSmile.  AmazonSmile is operated by Amazon with the same products, prices, and shopping features as Amazon.com.  The difference is when you shop on AmazonSmile, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate a percentageof the purchase to the charitable organization of your choice (that's us!)  It's a simple and automatic way for you to support JAMM every time you shop, at no cost to you.

You can use your same Amazon account on AmazonSmile.  Your shopping cart, Wish List, etc. are also the same.

On your first visit to AmazonSmile (smile.amazon.com), you'll be prompted to select a charitable organization before shopping.  We are listed as "Jackson Home & School Club" or you can also search for us using locations (Morgan Hill.)  If your are searching for us by name, make sure that the location listed is Morgan Hill, CA.

If you're already using AmazonSmile, you can change your charitable donation to Jackson, if you would like, by clicking on or hovering over the little triangle next to the name of the current organization you are supporting. This will pop up a window that will allow you to make the change.

Benefit Mobile:  Now you can buy and redeem gift cards instantly through your mobile device with the Benefit Mobile app.  It's an easy way to earn money for our school just by shopping for items you would normally shop for everyday.

All you have to do is download the app and set up your account.  During your account set up, tap "Beneficiary" in the app and locate our school.  Search for us by zip code (95037), we are listed as "Jackson Elementary Home & School Club, Morgan Hill."

We hope you will consider using one or both of these methods to help us earn some money for our school.
