Support Wellesley Players by Shopping at Amazon through Amazon Smile

To: Members and Audience Guests,

As you may already know, the Wellesley Players operate completely with volunteers. We are a 501(3)c organization and we exist to bring our audiences live, quality, theatrical productions at a reasonable and affordable price for our audiences. The cost of the venue we perform accounts for approximately 1/3 of our total show budget. In order to pay for the venue, we rely heavily on ticket sales. While our goal is always to sell out every performance that is sometimes difficult to do so we have to supplement our income in other creative ways.

The Players have a very simple way for you to participate by using Amazon Smile.

Amazon Smile is a simple and automatic way for you to support your favorite charitable organization every time you shop, with no extra cost to you. When you shop online at AmazonSmile.com, you will find the same exact low prices, wide selection of products and a favorable shopping experience as you do onAmazon.com, with the added bonus that Amazon will donate 0.5% of the purchase price to your charitable organization of choice. The Wellesley Players are listed as a charitable organization. If you use Amazon Smile the organization donates a percentage of the sales to the Players. This is a very easy way to contribute to the support of the Players when you are shopping on line.

Won’t you consider trying this approach when you shop on line? We certainly appreciate your help. We would also appreciate having you share this information with friends and family. Any help you can give to help us alleviate some of the burden is greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,
Celia Couture
President
