"Because our industry offers an unusually diverse array of product offerings that can be useful to those in need–things like diapers,medical supplies,wipes,building materials and filter products–we are in a unique position to help out those in need,"says INDA President Dave Rousse."Our partnership with Good360 allows companies to give something back to the community by streamlining the process of finding organizations or individuals who can actually use their goods,which charities are worthwhile,or how to get the products to those who need them the most."

Since its inception in 1983,Good360 has distributed more than$7 billion in product donations to thousands of pre-qualified charities serving countless causes,individuals and communities.

Donations to Good360 can be made at any time,whether in the event of an emergency or in non-emergency times.Companies can donate when they have excess inventory,to reduce waste going to landfills or simply because you want to make a difference.

"We have the ability to tailor a giving program to any company's needs,"says Good360 Vice President of Donor Relations,Doyle Delph."Our partnership with INDA will provide the nonwovens industry with 360 degrees of good–good for companies,good for communities and good for the environment."
