NorthPoint Gives Back is a donation program, powered by you! NorthPoint can donate your no-longer-wanted inventory and donate them to various local charities and programs.

NorthPoint Managed Inventory now has orange labels for items that haven’t seen any movement in over 275 days. This will alert you to items that may be a good fit for donating. Once you have decided you would like to donate the item, simply press the "Donate Now" button.

Only supervisors have access to the donate button to avoid any accidental donating. If you are a user, contact the supervisor to discuss any plans to donate.

Each donation will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis if it will incur handling fees. Your Account Executive will reach out to discuss if that will occur prior to moving any donated items.

Anything in your Managed Inventory is eligible for donating. Here are some suggested situations where donating is ideal: • Promos and apparel that have old branding. • Left over event t-shirts that you won’t ever need again. • Items that are just plain old or simply no longer wanted.
