That means you can stretch your resources allowing more of your budget to provide services to people in our community. As a member, you can access items to run your programs, support your operations and give to your clients. For a nominal fee, secure items such as:
If there is something we don’t have that you need in bulk, we can use our buying power to source for you from our network of vendors. Reach out with your product request to info@goodsbankneo.org. |
When you become a member, we can help you access what you need, when you need it – from a few items, to a full pallet, to a truckload.

Benefits of Membership
In-Person Shopping
Designated individuals from your organization can shop by appointment.
Pallet Donations
Access bulk donations packaged on a pallet. When you need large quantities, this provides for easy handling.
Save Time Sourcing
Our volume buying means we can offer you some of the best prices, so you won’t have to waste time searching for the best value. We want to stretch your impact!
Client Shopping
Members may bring up to two clients to select what they want as long as the nonprofit covers the administrative fees.
Make Your Wish List a Reality
Buying at such nominal fees can make it possible to do things for your clients and organization that you didn’t think were possible.
Access Crisis Assistance Funds
Funding permitting, we will award gift cards to shop our warehouse for member-sponsored families in crisis.
