Donate to Austin Great Wall Chinese School via Amazon Smile

AGWCS Academic Dean Lanyu Liu recently created the amazon smile account. If you shop at amazon http://smile.amazon.com/ch/74-2718929, amazon will donate 0.5% to the school (ensure the supporting charity is AGWCS on the top of the screen). If you selected another charity in the past, you can change to AGWCS after you log into Amazon Smile. AGWCS board encourages any possible ways to contribute to the school. Donating through Amazon Smile might be the easiest approach for you. We appreciate that Ms. Liu took the intiative.
