If you join using the link on Aldrich's website and make a purchase within 45 days of registering, our school will receive $1 for your registration in addition to the rebate based on a percentage of your purchase amount.

Directions for registering:

* Click on the iGive banner above.

* Enter your email address in the box on the right labeled "join here".

* Enter your personal information and, if desired, check the box that says "I want to take a tax deduction for my shopping donations."

Directions for shopping:

* Whenever you want to make a purchase just return to www.iGive.com.

* Login if necessary, click on the "shopping" tab, and choose your merchant. You will be taken to your selected retailer and a small frame will remain at the top of your browser window indicating that you are logged in through iGive.com. Complete your purchase as usual.

* A few merchants (currently Amazon, Drugstore, and Travelnow) will require that you fill out a brief form at the iGive site after you make your purchase.

The donation to Aldrich will be based on the amount of your purchase, depending on the percentage offered by the retailer. At the end of each year you can check your iGive account for the amount that will be deductable on your tax return.

Remember, please do not sign up until you are ready to shop at one of the participating merchants because Aldrich will not receive the referral bonus unless you make a purchase within 45 days of registering.

Thank you for considering this unique opportunity to donate to Aldrich. Feel free to share this information with family and friends who might be willing to help.
