NAEIR’s Corporate Relations
Representatives work diligently. They
call hundreds of companies every day in order to get the best products
available for our member organizations.
This continuing effort has led to NAEIR
becoming partners with corporations such as 3M, Avery-Dennison, W.W. Grainger,
ENESCO, Hallmark, Office Depot and Newell-Rubbermaid.
Companies donate merchandise to NAEIR to support nonprofit
and charitable organizations, take advantage of tax deductions and clear out
warehouse space. Schools, churches and nonprofit organizations pay a small
membership fee and nominal shipping and handling charges to participate in
NAEIR’s program, but the merchandise itself is FREE.
NAEIR handles sorting,
processing, cataloguing and redistribution of the merchandise.
NAEIR publishes
five, “Big Book” 200-page catalogs per year as well as Best Values, Overstock, and Clearance catalogs
through which members can browse and request
free merchandise.
NAEIR members from coast to coast reap substantial savings
while acquiring many times over their membership investment in the form of
product they might not otherwise be able to afford to purchase outright.
With NAEIR very often offering free shipping
to boot, membership is an even better deal these days.
