Amazon.co.uk will pay you money if you help direct book-buyers to its Web site from
your site. But do any charities raise funds in this way?
Gordon Hudson contacted
UK Fundraising to confirm that they can. “The Amazon affiliates page on [www.depressionalliance.org ](http://www.depressionalliance.org)
brings in enough money to pay their Web hosting and domain name costs,” said Gordon.
[Vetaid](http://www.vetaid.org), another charity that he is involved with,”is also
making reasonable sums from their less well developed site.”
