### Are you seeking to improve how your organisation is currently donating surplus assets to charity?

### Are you trying to find a way to effectively donate furniture to charity on a big scale?

This resource will be handy for anyone who is donating or planning to donate assets to charity as part of a surplus assets reuse program or a furniture reuse network.

We recently produced a report [about surplus asset reuse practices](https://blog.warp-it.co.uk/boost-the-reuse.-a-comparative-report-into-surplus-asset-reuse-practices) in the US, UK and Australia.  A great deal of respondents donate surplus to charity however many do not because they see it as too challenging. 

We therefore thought it would be useful to create a report to help improve how this activity is delivered.

We also asked our customers, newsletter readers (5K) and Twitter followers (Nearly 4K) for their opinion. They replied with great generosity. 

**In this report we give you:**

- The reasons why donating assets to charity is worth pursuing- even if it can be a challenge at times
- Barriers to donating furniture and assets to charity
- Case studies where giving corporate assets to charity worked very well
- Top tips for making transactions go smoothly
- How to build a network of charity recipients

**This report will be of use to anyone looking to set up or improve a furniture reuse program or system, in particular:**

- Surplus managers
- Procurement managers
- Sustainability managers
- Waste managers
- Service design managers
- Finance Directors
- Estates and Facilities Managers and Directors
