The Social Impact of Reuse:
A National Roundtable

Wednesday, 14 January, 2025 | 12 PM ET | 17:00 UTC

What you can expect from this webinar:

What happens when surplus furniture becomes a force for good? In this conversational, high-impact roundtable, leaders from mission-driven organizations across North America share how donated furnishings, fixtures, and equipment strengthen communities, accelerate their missions and expand access to essential services.

Hear firsthand how reuse supports education, housing, workforce development and neighborhood revitalization while helping organizations stretch every dollar further. This is a can’t-miss discussion for anyone interested in the human side of facility management.
