About Savers
My name is Will Bennett and I’m the Community Donations Manager of your local Newington Savers. I understand your organization collects donations; so the purpose of this letter is to invite you to see what Savers has to offer your organization.
1: Savers FUNDrive is a new kind of fundraising event --one that pays your organization for gently-used items you collect, including clothes, shoes, jewelry, accessories and linens. You may already have these items, but not have a need for them at this time. People simply clean out their closets (something we all need to do anyhow), and donate them to you. Should you find yourself with extra items that are not needed, or excess items that you cannot use at the time, Savers would like to help!
Here are some key benefits:
• Easy to run and fun!
• No selling and no inventory to purchase and manage – little to zero cost
• Perfect volunteer opportunity for all ages
• A complete program with all the tools you need for success – completely turnkey!!
2: Savers would also like to support your organization by donating back to you if you would find them useful to your organization.
- Blankets and Sheets for Bedding
- Stuffed animals / toys
- Books
- REUSABLE Nylon
Bags for Perishable Items
These are items that were good enough to make it to our sales floor but didn’t sell and have been recycled off the floor. All items that don’t sell within a few weeks are responsibly recycled or made available to developing countries, but first we contribute locally if there is a need.
Other local Savers throughout CT have luck with these programs, so please feel free to contact me to see how we can benefit each other!
