Leading group purchasing organization exclusively serving the non-profit community, Non-Profit Purchasing Group (NPPG), announced today its partnership with payment services provider NXGEN to launch the revolutionary merchant services program NXGIVE to help support charitable causes.

The Non-Profit Purchasing Group created the merchant services program to help fund its community member’s non-profit initiatives. NPPG urges all of its businesses that execute credit card transactions to participate in this innovative program. The NXGIVE program was established to not only support charitable causes throughout the NPPG community, but to lower the cost of payment processing for its wide array of non-profit customers. Non-Profit Purchasing Group always strives to provide its customers with the best products at unbeatable prices. The NXGIVE program is yet another effort by NPPG to alleviate the costs of commonly purchased goods and services for non-profit organizations.

To participate in the NXGIVE program and begin saving now, members of NPPG must switch to NXGEN for credit card processing services. From that point on, a revenue share percentage from each credit card transaction will be donated back to that non-profit organization’s charity of choice. The donation will be taken from NXGEN’s profits at no charge to the customer.

Churches and Other Non-Profits Need to Take Advantage of Purchasing Groups.

The state of the economy seems to be on the mind of a lot of charities and non-profit organizations these days.  “We just don’t have any room in our budget,” is a common statement in the church hallways and around water coolers at non-profit associations, especially when tithing and giving is down.  With reduced incomes, people give less, and therefore charities have less to operate with.  Once your budgets are slashed, the next step is usually to reduce your spending or else cut down your programs (In serious circumstances those programs may not even survive).  But what if you could find a way to still do the things that you needed to do, but it just cost less?  What if smaller groups could negotiate the same types of discounts as the larger businesses? These were the questions that challenged myself, and led me to start up The Non-Profit Purchasing Group of Canada. 

NPPG Canada was started because we felt that there was a real need in the non-profit sector to have someone that would look out for the group’s better interests.  I’ve been part of many different purchasing groups in the business world when I was a Buyer and Category Manager; I knew firsthand about their ability to create huge savings through the sheer volume of multiple members combining their purchasing powers together, as if they were one account.  But the non-profit sector is much more disjointed than retail companies, with a huge disparity between the needs of medical offices, churches, fundraising charities, as well as athletic organizations and international aid groups.  When you add performing arts groups, schools, social aid programs and animal shelters, you begin to see that Canada has a wide variety of groups that all classify themselves as “Not For Profit”.  Negotiating on behalf of everyone is where the concept all comes together.

The concept is very simple, really.  We negotiate prices with best-in-class providers of products and services based upon the overall volume of business we are going to send them each year.  Any member of NPPG Canada can now access that discounted price at any time, regardless of what the amount is for each order.  Whether you order $50 or $500 worth of printing, for example, your pricing would be the same as if you purchased $500,000 worth!  And the more products and services we purchase as a group, the greater leverage we have to negotiate even better deals in the future!  Finally the smaller non-profit organizations can get the same (if not better) prices that large corporate companies receive.  If you would like to see the amount of savings your organization could achieve based on your current purchases, we have provided a savings calculator right on the website so that you can immediately see your benefits.  To find out more about what The Non-Profit Purchasing Group of Canada can do for your organization, please check out www.nppg.ca or call 1-403-973-4349.

NPPG Canada is committed to lowering the recurring costs of non-profit organizations by providing its members with discounted rates on their most commonly purchased goods and services. We are also committed to giving back to the non-profit community by donating 10 percent of our net income to charity. You can also purchase a membership and donate it to your local church or favourite charity in order to help them save money.

Non-Profits Now Have a Better Way to Purchase Thanks to an Organization that is Looking Out for Their Best Interests

CALGARY, A.B., Canada. – The Non-Profit Purchasing Group of Canada announced today that non-profit organizations and charities nationwide have an opportunity to save money on their everyday purchases of products and services through a discounted website at www.nppg.ca.

“With the current tough economic conditions, donations to most non-profit organizations in Canada have been declining for the past two years,” said NPPG Canada President Alex Golin.  “After the first year, many groups simply tightened their belts, but now with a second straight slow year, a lot of non-profits are having to take a serious look at either cutting back their programs or laying off people.  To a large organization, downsizing may be an option, but for many of the over 200,000 small to midsize non-profits in Canada, their only option would be to no longer open their doors to help those in need.  Our website offers them a chance to be good stewards of their donations and funding by helping them do more with less resources.”

NPPG Canada is a Group Purchasing Organization that has negotiated discounts and savings on products that charities need and services that non-profits use.  Products like office and shipping supplies, water and energy-efficient equipment, fundraising and database management software all help non-profits become more cost-effective in their roles within their communities.  In addition, background checks, anti-bacterial paint, safety supplies and online employee survey tools all help keep an organization and their volunteers safe and happy.  For a nominal membership fee (as low as $9.99/month), access is given to an extensive list of vendor partners that can offer their discounted products and services, and that means that NPPG Canada members have lots of opportunity to reduce their expenditures.  The money that they would save every year could go a long way to keep programs running and services strong.  The website also provides people with an opportunity to buy gift memberships and donate them to their favourite non-profit, ultimately giving charities far more than the initial amount!

We provide our members with the very best deals we can find and continually strive to add new quality suppliers to our expanding list of vendor partners.”

NPPG CEO Dan Engel said: “We’ve worked closely with Alex Golin to ensure that the Canadian website, image and vendor partners provide the same best-in-class professional products and services to Canadian non-profits as our U.S. members have come to expect.” Golin is in the process of finalizing discounts with both U.S. based vendor partners that provide service to Canada and Canadian-based vendor partners. Engel added: “We hope that Canadian suppliers will recognize the importance of helping non-profits in these difficult times as have our U.S. partners. We encourage those wishing to become vendor partners in NPPG Canada to contact Alex Golin directly to ensure participation in the launch.”
