Hopefully, not the landfill. Taxpayers don’t like seeing usable furnishings thrown away, but what do you do with the thousands of pieces of legacy furniture replaced during bond refurbishment projects? Its resale value is almost zero and district warehouses can’t accommodate such high volumes. The only sustainable alternative is charitable donation. That’s where IRN comes in.
Hundreds of US schools have trusted IRN to match their unwanted surplus with charitable recipients around the globe. The cost is less than disposal and the process is simpler. IRN oversees logistics and site management to ensure a smooth project. Reuse is not only good for the environment, but improves the learning experience for children throughout the world.
