This was my most recent one:
"This is the quarterly notification to inform you that AmazonSmile has made a charitable donation to the charity you’ve selected, ASPCA, in the amount of $667,715.43 as a result of qualifying purchases made by you and other customers between July 1st - September 30th."
This is their listed total for my selected charity: "$15,787,389.62 to ASPCA"
So, yeah. Some of the bigger charities were getting meaningful money.
Sucks, just got the email today,  mine was going to St Jude's.  Always opened the Amazon page by typing in Smile and autofilled the rest.  Plus I could also bypass having to enter my password often checking orders by just going to smile... instead. >

Mine was the same but I didn’t get an email today.  I looked and my last email about it said this:
“This is the quarterly notification to inform you that AmazonSmile has made a charitable donation to the charity you’ve selected, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, in the amount of $780,916.62 as a result of qualifying purchases made by you and other customers who have selected this charity. “ >

Interesting. Their justification is that the donations were spread too thin, but from your email it sounds like some charities were getting a non-negligible amount of cash, so.... I call bullshit
