AmazonSmile is a simple and automatic way for you to support us every time you shop, at no cost to you. When you shop through AmazonSmile, you’ll find the exact same low prices, huge selection and convenient shopping experience as the main site, with the added bonus that AmazonSmile will donate a portion of the purchase price of millions of eligible items to Meningitis Now.

How it works

All you need to do is visit smile.amazon.co.uk, or activate AmazonSmile through your app. This will take you to the same Amazon site that you know and love, but the first time you visit you will be prompted to select a charity to benefit from any eligible purchases that you make. 

You can log in using your usual Amazon account, and all account settings will remain the same.

If you have a collection of unwanted items that you're looking to sell, eBay for Charity is an easy, safe way to support us at the same time as making a few pounds.  Sellers can donate a percentage from any sale - whether it's an everyday bargain or a special auction - to a us and add Gift Aid to their donations.

In addition, all eBay for Charity items will qualify for a fee credit on basic insertion and final value fees, equal to the percentage donated.

How it works

List your unwanted things on eBay and make sure you click ‘Donate a portion to charity’. Choose Meningitis Now as your chosen charity and select how much of the sale you would like to donate. When your item sells, your donation will come directly to Meningitis Now through the PayPal Giving Fund. You’ll receive a donation receipt from eBay to confirm.

If you're buying from eBay, keep an eye out for the blue and yellow ribbon on listings that marks an item sale as supporting a charity.
