Impact schools and non-profits through a unique promotional partnership
What is NAEIR and how does it help?
NAEIR, or the National Association for the Exchange of Industrial Resources, is a non-profit organization that collects excess inventory from businesses and distributes it to schools, churches, and other non-profits in need. Since 1977, NAEIR has helped over 150,000 organizations save money on office supplies, furniture, equipment, and more. NAIER also provides educational materials, books, toys, and games to enhance the learning and development of children and adults.
NAEIR’s mission is to empower and enrich the lives of people and communities by providing them with the resources they need to succeed. NAEIR operates on the principle of “waste not, want not”, and believes that every product has a purpose and a potential. By diverting excess inventory from landfills and redistributing it to those who can use it, NAEIR reduces environmental impact and creates social impact.
How can you support NAEIR and the organizations they empower?
Through a brand partnership, we have several items, available with your logo and messaging, that are eligible for a 1:1 giveback program with NAEIR. For qualifying items, an in kind donation of same/similar product is donated to NAEIR – it’s that simple. By purchasing qualifying drinkware and office supply products, an equal number is donated to ensure access to low/no cost office supplies for schools, churches, non-profits, and other charitable organizations to help them stretch their budgets, reduce operational expenses, and get needed products in the hands of the people they support.
What products qualify for this giveback progam?
For 2024, over 30 items, including multiple options for pens, drinkware, bags, and other school and office supplies, are available through this giveback program. These options include:
