In-Kind Donations

In-kind donations are those donations that are done in goods and services rather than money. Sometimes it is not cash you give, but some other valuable. The most obvious one would be the services of a professional. A lawyer might donate his time to assist in the filing of incorporation papers for a non-profit corporation. A doctor might volunteer to do screening examinations or flu shots. Or a carpenter might build something for a local charity. These are sometimes the most valuable sorts of donations. A cash gift is nice, of course; but the organization saves twice when it saves all the bookkeeping and paperwork involved in disbursing that cash in accordance with their charter.

The in-kind donation is a simpler and more human one.

Donations In-Kind

A donation in kind is where a product, equipment or capacity of a business is donated to a charitable cause (usually local). This can vary from imperfect stock, to spare or overproduced stock, old equipment, low cost office space or spare transport capacity.

This can help save the need to throw away or clear out items at low prices; whilst helping good causes. This type of donation usually requires more thought than a financial donation, but can be extremely useful to good causes at little cost to your business. It is important however to check with the charity or scheme that your donations are needed.

There are some organizations that collect donations of new goods, and distribute them to worthwhile causes; if you are unsure of a cause to donate to, these could help see your contributions are given to those who will benefit.

Examples of Donations In-Kind:

  1. A business upgrades its computer systems, and donates the old computers and printers to a charity collection organisation.
  2. A sandwich makers often ends up with spare products and a number of items that are slightly imperfect; and offers these to the local homeless shelter at the end of each day, rather than throwing them away.
  3. A toy manufacturer produces a number of items with minor cosmetic flaws; and donates these each month to a local children’s charity.
  4. A Nationwide Haulage Delivery company always has half empty Lorries on Fridays, and offers the spaces to charities that need to send goods between branches or to distant locations; saving them transport costs.
  5. A school, library or publisher has spare educational books after a recent upgrade, refurbishment and donates these to charities for export to developing countries.

Isaar collects in-kind (new and gently used) items to help the poor and needy in South Asian countries and Africa, when need arises. We collect computers, books, journals, medical supplies, medical equipment, school and office furniture, toys, household items (dishes, pots and pans), clothes, jackets, shoes, etc.
