With tight budgets, many nonprofit organizations often overlook swag as a potential tool in fulfilling their mission. However, we believe that these organizations are actually in a position to expect more of a return on their investment when they use swag than any other type of business! 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Especially when it comes to nonprofits with a strong mission to spread, swag is a fantastic way to develop a powerful internal culture as well as build excitement around the purpose of the organization.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Proudly share your mission with the world<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many nonprofits are tasked with working to solve a specific problem. Sometimes the greater public may not have a deep knowledge of that problem\u2014 maybe they have never even heard of it! Swag can be a great awareness-building tool for organizations in this position. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Swag can be a secret sauce when it comes to building awareness around an issue, or creating cohesive messaging within your team. Highly-visible swag, whether stickers or apparel, can be an amazing way to make sure your message is getting out into the community. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are a few ideas of how swag can be a powerful tool for nonprofits looking to make a difference:
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Use custom apparel to build a sense of community and teamwork<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Many nonprofits rely on volunteers or temporary staff to run events and accomplish the goals of their organizations. This means that organizers of these teams must find ways to create cohesion and dedication among diverse groups very quickly! One easy way to do this is use custom gear to ensure people look and feel like a team right off the bat.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Giving out t-shirts, hats, hoodies or other customized apparel to people working for your organization is not only helpful for logistic purposes; it also goes a long way towards making everyone that wears it feel pride in your mission! When you design these items, think of it as a chance to create a walking advertisement for the goals of your organization.

Offer thoughtful gifts to volunteers<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Volunteers are the heart of many nonprofits. Whether they are temporary employees who help carry out events, or full-time members of the team that are essential to day-to-day operations, finding ways to thank volunteers is essential to a healthy organization. 
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When thinking about ways to thank volunteers we think it\u2019s important to find a gift that will reflect the spirit of the work they performed. For example, if your volunteers helped run a benefit concert, a cool t-shirt featuring the line up from that day would be a nice piece of memorabilia! If volunteers came together for a day of beach clean-up, maybe a pair of custom flip-flops would be better suited to the cause. In any case, we can help you find and customize gifts for your volunteers that will demonstrate appreciation and encourage reengagement at the same time.

Give donors gifts they will treasure<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Many nonprofits rely on donors and philanthropic giving to remain operational. It\u2019s no secret to anyone in the nonprofit world that a large part of their internal structure is dedicated to maintaining and encouraging these donations.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To that end, offering donors gifts is a fantastic way to show appreciation, and hopefully encourage repeat giving in the future. These gifts don\u2019t always have to be huge\u2014 and in fact we see lots of success for organizations sending small gifts for small donors, just to say thank you and make people feel more connected to the organization. While it\u2019s nice to offer these gifts as a nice token of appreciation, explicitly offering them in return for a donation is one surefire way to pique people\u2019s interest. You never know what might be the item that pushes people across the donation finish line in the end!
