NAEIR has been acting as the conduit between generous donor organizations and deserving schools, churches, and nonprofit organizations for over 30 years – over $2 billion in new, useful merchandise has been distributed to thousands of individuals during this time . . . yet, it’s always interesting to discover that many of companies and organizations that we talk to have never heard of NAEIR before.
Help us to spread the word. A lot of our donor companies belong to trade associations that publish journals; just as several of the schools, churches, and charities that are NAEIR members are part of larger groups that issue newsletters.
Just a short blurb in these publications can do wonders to spark interest in NAEIR.
We’re not expecting a front-page story (although we would welcome that opportunity) just a paragraph or two about how NAEIR works and how your company or school, church, or nonprofit has benefited from NAEIR’s service would be great. The more donations we receive, the more members we can serve -- the strong our organization becomes.
To show our appreciation, if you represent a donor company and you take the initiative to publish an article about NAEIR’s service in your trade association journal or newsletter, we will provide a free one-year catalog membership to the school, church, or charity of your choice – that’s a $595 value.
If you’re a member of NAEIR and include a blurb about NAEIR in a newsletter or publication that your organization is associated with, we will send you a coupon for $149 off on handling charges.
Just send us a tear sheet of the article from the magazine, journal, or newsletter, along with your contact information and we’ll see that you are justly rewarded for your efforts. To help you get started, below are some ideas for donor companies and member organizations to include in your publications.
Thank you for your continued support of NAEIR.
Suggested Article for Donor Companies:
Many companies aren’t aware of the benefits associated with gifts-in-kind donations. When you have excess inventory, donating that inventory can free up warehouse space, avoid the problems often associated with liquidation, can contribute to your company’s “green” initiatives by keeping the products out of landfills, tax deductions are available, and most importantly, your products will go towards helping schools, churches, and nonprofit organizations serving individuals that are ill, needy, or minors.
A leader in the gifts-in-kind industry that has over 30 years of experience in handling product donations is NAEIR, the National Association for the Exchange of Industrial Resources. During this time, NAEIR has received and re-distributed over $2 billion worth of new, useful, excess inventory. Currently, NAEIR has over 12,000 school, church, and nonprofit members that can use a wide variety of products. NAEIR has a 450,000 square foot warehouse centrally located in Galesburg, Illinois, so they can accept donations from a few pallets to several truckloads. To learn more about the free product donation service offered by this unique organization, or to arrange a donation, call 1-800-562-0955 or visit the NAEIR website at www.naeir.org.

Suggested Article for Member Organizations:
Schools, churches, and nonprofit organizations are receiving thousands of dollars in free merchandise through a gifts-in-kind organization called NAEIR.
It may sound too good to be true – but it’s not. NAEIR receives office supplies, maintenance and janitorial items, personal care products, items for children, paper products, plus a lot of the “extras” that are so important. The items themselves are free – all your organization has to pay are nominal handling charges and shipping to get the items from NAEIR’s Galesburg, Illinois warehouse to your location (or you can pick up the items at the NAEIR warehouse to avoid shipping charges).
All of the products that your organization receives have to be used for the ill, the needy, or children, and cannot be bartered, traded, or sold.
NAEIR has been around for over 30 years and during that time they have re-distributed over $2 billion worth of new, useful, excess inventory. To find out how your organization can become a part of NAEIR, call 1-800-562-0955 or visit the NAEIR website at www.naeir.org.
(if you would include a couple of sentences about how your organization has benefited from NAEIR membership it would be greatly appreciated)
