Gift kits from surplus: a community organisation project

The problem. Gift buyers want less new stuff. Who it helps. A charity or community organisation delivering it, helping op shops, small manufacturers and community groups with surplus to share. What you start with. Surplus homewares and gifts. What is delivered. Kits are assembled from surplus into corporate or personal gifts, with items clearly described. Your organisation leads delivery with support from the Deals Colony team. How progress is known. Kits made are counted. A short summary is shared with your board or members, with names and personal details left out. Main purpose. The main purpose is access to a useful product or service, or less waste going to landfill, for the community. Honest limits. Items must be described accurately. Items are described accurately, in line with Australian consumer law, and custom made or refurbished items are disclosed. Ownership of your idea stays with you, and no job, funding or contract is promised. Track record. This is a new idea built on work Deals Colony has already documented. It has not been run yet.
