Shop via AmazonSmile

How to donate using AmazonSmile:

• In your internet browser go to https://smile.amazon.com/
• Log in using your Amazon credentials

• Select, “Yes, I understand that I must always start at smile.amazon.com to support Friendship Force International.”
• Double-check that the link for donations is set-up properly to benefit FFI.

Retirement plans and IRAs

Gifts from your retirement plan or IRA can be an easy tax-wise way to donate to FFI.  To prepare for this type of giving contact your plan administrator and request a beneficiary designation form. 

What is monthly giving?

Monthly giving is an affordable and easy way to support Friendship Force.  When you become a monthly donor you set an amount that will be deducted from your bank account on a specific day each month.  This donation will continue seamlessly until you are ready for it to stop.  You can stop your donation any time by logging into DonorBox or by contacting our support team at support@friendshipforce.org. 

Why is monthly giving so important?

Monthly giving makes budgeting more predictable for nonprofits.  While unexpected donations are great and always welcome, recurring donations make monthly financial planning easier.  Also, as a monthly donor, you know that you are consistently supporting a nonprofit you love in a huge way.  If you would like to make a difference by becoming a monthly donor, visit our campaign page here and select the monthly option below the Customize your Donation tab.
