Step 2: Scroll down to Settings.

Step 3: Choose AmazonSmiles.

Step 4: Choose/Search for Benjamin Franklin Middle School Home & School Association

Step 5:Turn on AmazonSmiles

You will have to renew every 6 months but now, any purchase you make that is eligible for AmazonSmiles through your app, will be included as part of your AmazonSmile impact for BF! Continue to use the AmazonSmiles website when shopping on your computer.
