Amazon Smile: Stop sponsoring Safari Club International, they are not a Charity

Amazon Smile: Stop sponsoring Safari Club International, they are not a Charity

The Issue

Amazon has a program called Amazon Smile, where you can designate a charitable organization, and the world’s biggest retailer will donate a portion of your purchase to it. I was shocked to learn that both the NRA Foundation and Safari Club International are charity choices.

Safari Club International as everyone knows is an historical relic that is needing to be put out of business.  Close ties to NRA, USFWS, and Canadian Government and responsible for extermination of wildlife globally.

The primary obstacle to conservation efforts and beneficiaries of non-profit 501 (c) designation.  This tax advantage is obtained on the back of a lie that claims that killing is conservation.

In addition SCI claims that they are a philanthropic organization that has African peoples best interests at heart.

The false "CONservation" and "Philanthropy" claims are the basis of their ability to obtain tax breaks which essentially mean that there is no conservation and our taxes are used to bribe and "lobby" corrupt governments to allow their hunting to continue.

Amazon is a massive multinational that has a responsibility to both humans and wildlife, and needs to remove both the NRA and SCI from their list of donor options.
