I promise to my fledgling readership that I do have a substantive family travel series kicking off soon.  In the meantime, I wanted to quickly share a program of which I only recently became aware – AmazonSmile. Simply put, AmazonSmile is the same as the Amazon site you might already shop, but with 0.5% of the sale going to a charity of your choice. This is a nice opportunity to support organizations of your choice with a transaction that you might already make.  If you wish to learn more, click through to About AmazonSmile.
