What NAEIR is:

A not-for-profit collector and distributor of new, donated overstock inventory, from U.S. corporations, to schools and nonprofit organizations.

A fair, equitable way for these goods to be distributed to qualified recipient groups, using a highly sophisticated computerized allocation system, designed specifically for this purpose.

A budget supplement that can help a school or nonprofit receive new, useful supplies and equipment, paying only membership dues, plus shipping and handling. The merchandise itself is FREE.

What NAEIR is not:

A mail order house, buyer's club, or discount service. Member organizations do not pay for the merchandise; however, since all products are donated, they are in limited quantities and members do not receive everything they ask for.

A needs-specific service. For example, if your organization needs a folding table, you may not find one in the NAEIR catalogs. If you do find one and request it you may or may not receive it. There is no guarantee that you will receive any individual item that you request.

First come, first serve. NAEIR allocates merchandise from each catalog on a weekly basis, over a ten week period. Simply put, NAEIR apportions the merchandise in each catalog out into tenths, giving that portion away each week as requests come in. This ensures that all of the high-demand items will not be given away at the beginning of the cycle, nor will they be held until the end. As long as they meet the catalog deadline, each member has an equal chance at the merchandise.

Like any service you have ever used before. We strongly urge you to read and follow the requesting instructions in each catalog and phone your Membership Advocate at 800.562.0955 any time you have a question or need assistance. We're always eager to help and want you to get the most you can out of NAEIR's service.
