The corporate environment and philanthropic goals of our corporate partners vary a great deal from company to company. Gifts In Kind International has more than 20 years of experience working with a wide range of companies, large and small, to make their philanthropic and corporate responsibility goals a reality. During that time we have learned that each partner has different needs and goals. Therefore, we do not provide one-size-fits-all solutions. In fact, our staff is trained to help each partner determine how the Gifts In Kind® program can meet the special needs of each partner to extend their brand, provide inventory solutions, highlight their Corporate Social Responsibility platform, encourage their employees to get involved in their communities, and so much more.

Gifts In Kind International's three distribution models are used as a starting point to help each corporate partner set up a product donation program. These models allow us to effectively and efficiently move product donations quickly to the people who need them. They include:

1. Warehouse Model: We have the know-how and resources to move product donations, large or small, quickly to communities in need.

2. Managed Model: We manage the donor and employee-directed gift match programs for a number of companies, including IBM, HP, GM, Mattel, Men's Wearhouse, and many others.

3. Retail Distribution Partner Model: We match local retail stores with nonprofits in their areas for regularly scheduled donations, cutting out the shipping costs for those community groups that often operate on a shoe-string budget and eliminating the reverse logistics costs for the donors.

We have the flexibility to work with you and your team to set up a program that provides the right solutions and benefits for your company. For more information about making an initial donation or setting up a program, contact Dan McCabe, Executive Vice President, Donor Relations,(703) 299-7521 or dmccabe@giftsinkind.org.
