God above, who thinks these names up?
Anyway, Amazon Smile, with AMSAT as the recipient. It'll probably only result in a buck or two coming your way, but if enough people sign up, you might get $50, which apparently is all it costs to build a hamsat!
Wow. I had never heard of that before.
Living in the city with no car, I'm a frequent Amazon shopper. Already signed up and selected AMSAT.
Might net them a couple of bucks a year from me, but that's better than zero.

By the way, you do have to use the URL smile.amazon.com when shopping or else your purchase won't count. Amazon doesn't log you into Amazon Smile automatically.

Yes, but I keep an Amazon tab open in my browser at all times, and I've changed that to smile. instead of www. so all links followed from there will be smiley. Also, bookmarks have been altered to suit.
It only remains to be seen what percentage of items are smiley. Encouraging to discover that of nearly 100 items in my wishlist, in a broad range of categories, the vast majority were smiley. (Only 4 items were not.) Smiley items include Amazon Prime items as well as items shipped from and sold by non-Amazon vendors.
