AmazonSmile

Once you select Illinois College as your preferred charitable organization, the AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the total of all eligible items you purchase through smile.amazon.com.

It just takes a few minutes to set up your AmazonSmile account to support Illinois College. To make purchases easier, you can set up a bookmark on your PC and an AmazonSmile shortcut on your phone similar to using the app. Instructions are available below for an iPhone or PC, but please feel free to contact Taylor Smith, associate development officer at 217.245.3065 or taylor.smith@ic.edu for additional assistance.
