NCPC Email Listservs Moving to Google Groups

/ Beth / Leave a comment

NCPC maintains several email listservs. Over the next few weeks, NCPC will be moving  these listservs to Google Groups. We are doing this for several reasons including ease of use for the listserv administrators and for subscribers. We are also moving for cost reasons. Google Groups is a free service, and every penny we save on administrative costs is a penny we can use to provide our members, friends and supporters with the programs and services you have come to expect from NCPC.

Subscribers will receive a notification when each group is created. You may be asked to accept the invitation by clicking on a link in the email, or you may be notified that you have been added to the group. Please follow any directions in the welcome email. We appreciate your support and continued interest in our organization.

Support NCPC Simply By Shopping Amazon

Amazon Smile makes it easy to support the North Carolina Preservation Consortium (NCPC) by doing what you probably do already: shop online. When you order items via Amazon Smile, the Amazon Smile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the purchase price to NCPC. The purchase price is the amount paid for the item minus any rebates and excluding shipping and handling, gift-wrapping fees, taxes, or service charges.

By selecting NCPC as your designated charity, your purchases give back to NCPC at no additional cost to you. You can purchase the same products at the same prices as on the “regular” Amazon website, but when you start your shopping with Amazon Smile you automatically support NCPC.

It’s Easy To Start Shopping Amazon Smile

To sign up, log in to your Amazon account at http://smile.amazon.com. Search their database for North Carolina Preservation Consortium, and select NCPC as your charitable organization. When you are ready to shop, simply enter the Amazon website through the Amazon Smile URL. You will see in the upper left corner of your browser window that you have selected NCPC as your designated charity. From here, all of your purchases are helping to fund NCPC and its programming.

More information on the Amazon Smile program can be found on their website. Please note that purchases made through Amazon Smile are not tax deductible. You may also change your designated charity at any time, but we hope that you stay with NCPC. Amazon Smile is an easy and cost effective way to help support NCPC and our programs.
