      Resupply is looking to reinvent and forever change the supply-chain of charitable contributions within the US, and in doing so, evolve into a mature product delivery organization. Majority of our team are former military operators and logistics specialists, we know what it takes to get the right stuff to the right place — and even more personally — we know the impact that new supplies can have. In the last three years, we’ve picked up loved and gently used goods from over 150,000 households in 42 states and resupplied them to over 1,000 Charity retail locations nationwide. Helping you make your goods make an impact is what we do. Helping charities get resupplied with the goods they need to fund their mission is why it matters. Our software is what brings it all together.
