You Shop. Your Charity Gets Money. For Free.™ iGive is a free service where shopping at any of 1569 stores like Amazon, Travelocity, Overstock, and many more, means a donation to your favorite cause.

Amazon Smile

Here is another way that you can support us when you shop! It doesn't cost you a thing, and we get a donation of 0.5% of some purchases when you shop with Amazon. The Smile program only works on a computer ; unfortunately it can't be accessed through the mobile app. Thanks for your continued support!

1. Go to smile.amazon.com and log in with your normal Amazon account

2. A default charity will be selected for you. Click Change Your Charity.

3. A text box to search for your charity will come up. Enter "fat disorders" without the quote.

4. Fat Disorders Research Society will be the first option. Ignore that it says "Ridgefield, NJ" next to it. Click the button to the right that says "Select"

5. From now on, every time you shop, go to the Amazon Smile website smile.amazon.com instead of the usual Amazon website amazon.com and the donations should automatically go through
