IN-KIND NEEDS

If you’re a little strapped for cash, there are still many ways that you can contribute! From stuff to space to skills, we have the following needs for in-kind donations:
 
Stuff – We are looking for laptop computers, catering services, office furniture, product samples for gift bags and auction items (gift certificates, sports tickets or vacation packages) for various marketing and fundraising efforts.   
 
Space – Annually, we conduct many events, including our Penny Harvest Kit Assembly and cocktail and cultivation fundraisers. Our current offices aren’t big enough to accommodate the needs of these events. Please contact us if you think you might be able to provide Common Cents with event space that can accommodate anywhere from 50 to 300 people.  
 
Skills – As a small nonprofit, the use of pro bono services is greatly appreciated and welcomed. We are in need of the following services: graphic design/creative services (brochure and poster design), catering services and press support.  
 
In-kind donation questions should be addressed to Erin Shakespeare at: shakespeare@CommonCents.org.
