New England schools & economy benefit from fall sale

Schools are open and the fall fundraising season is up and running. A group of Rhode Island vendors are pitching in to add a new twist to the usual school fundraising fare.

Rhode Island favorites like Dave’s Coffee Syrup, Threadfollower, Rag and Bone Bindery, Glee Gum, D.A. Metal and Shore Soap Co. are in the pages of Close Buy Catalog, a local goods fundraising catalog featuring only made in New England products.

This year’s Close Buy Catalog features over 120 New England vendors – showcasing their locally made specialty food, body care, gifts, accessories, toys and stationery, and helping schools and clubs raise money for things like field trips and special projects while at the same time supporting the local economy.
