Smile – Support CCJ on Amazon Prime Day

Posted Jul 10, 2017, by Sarah Martik

If you’re like the staff here at The Center for Coalfield Justice, you love getting a good deal, which is why Amazon Prime Day is one of the best days of the year. This year, starting at 9:00 PM on Monday, July 10th and continuing throughout the day on Tuesday, July 11th, Prime members will have access to hundreds of thousands of deals online through Amazon.com. If you are already planning to shop on this day, CCJ has one request: shop using Amazon Smile and pick CCJ as your charity of choice.

Amazon Smile is a program which donates 0.5% of the price of eligible items to the nonprofit organization of your choice. This means that you don’t have to spend more to donate to a cause that needs your support. This program is accessible all year round via a web browser (you can’t use the app), but on this particular day – when you’re likely going to be shopping anyway – it could make an even bigger difference to frontline groups, like CCJ. To shop and have your purchases be put toward CCJ, use this link.

As always, CCJ is so thankful for the incredible support we receive. As our communities support us, we look to always be able to support them in return.

    Sarah joined the CCJ team as a Community Organizer in 2017 after previous work in performing arts and foreign language education, and became our Executive Director in 2023. A resident of Coal Center, PA, she is excited to work on issues related to legacy coal mining and the connection between the Appalachian petrochemical buildout and increases in fracking in southwestern PA communities like hers. She has a Master’s Degree in Public Administration and Policy but often says that her undergraduate degree in Theatre from the California University of Pennsylvania has been more useful in her work than anything else (ask her why sometimes!). When she is not working, Sarah loves spending time with her fiancé, niece, and nephews, and going on walks with her "fur kid" Lucy. Contact Sarah at smartik@centerforcoalfieldjustice.org.
